You deleted my FR? What the heck? It wasn’t too broad, it was very specific, actually. It was about reducing the number of network requests, one of which just happened to be the dictionary issue. No freedom on these forums, I guess? Wow. Outrageous. I made some good points in that post and it took me awhile to write. It was even polite and friendly.
I don’t have the “exact URLs” because OpenSnitch (the firewall software) doesn’t give them - just the domain, which should be enough because that’s the point. Why don’t you guys do a bit of looking into Electron to find the URLs it is communicating to, since you’re the developers…
But maybe you didn’t want some of what I wrote to be there in that FR, like how all Obsidian users’ IP addresses go to Google. You seem to forget in your rather zealous security thread, that “user data” includes a user’s IP address, and therefore shouldn’t be shared.
And, part of my request regarding the dictionaries was to eliminate the default requests of the dictionaries at first-run (which users cannot disable - thus resulting in the surreptitious “phone home to Google” upon first-run, which is what Signal recognized as a valid security and privacy concern and fixed, but you guys don’t, which I find surprising). Another part of the request was to turn off those dictionary requests entirely after turning off the dictionary. But you rather flippantly wrote up in your FR as “moving from one company’s CDN you don’t like to another company you probably don’t like”. That’s just rude, patronizing, and misrepresenting my concern.
