Steps to reproduce
I’m not really sure what the steps are as I don’t know what caused this exactly. Since the last Obsidian update on mobile (android 15, obsidian 1.10.6) I discovered one of my folders in my vault had itself been registered as a vault. I have synch turned on and also use Obsidian on my computer. When I opened my phone at the same time by accident, it generated a conflicting file copy. I deleted the file, closed both apps, and then opened again on my phone. Obsidian then proceeded to copy the entire contents of the primary vault into this secondary vault, including the secondary vault folder itself with the .obsidian folder data. This then triggered it to happen again. Before I realized what was going on, Obsidian had generated 800+ nested folders with over 100Mb of data, which then synched to my PC. Attempting to remove or edit the folders on either operating systems crashes the file explorer. I am now unable to turn synch on without triggering infinite recursion.
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]
I couldn’t find anything in the troubleshooting guide about this bug. Also I can’t really touch the vault folder now without crashing due to folder paths exceeding memory.
Expected result
Obsidian not trying to nuke my devices.
Actual result
Obsidian nuking my devices with the equivalent of a zip bomb.
