Obsidian Sync stuck in syncing loop (re-uploading the same files)

I have recently updated all of my plugins, and it seems to have solved the issue. I don’t have the loop anymore.

EDIT: No, it’s still happening :cry:

Maybe it’s related to the fact that I sync on 4 different OS.

From the most often to the least:

  • Windows 10
  • Android
  • Kubuntu 24.04
  • Windows 11

I was not aware that community plugins didn’t get automatically updated as they were released.
That’s where this kind of feature being implemented would prove useful: Automatic plugin updates

In the meantime, I advise Obsidian users to use this handy plugin to manage your installed plugin versions: GitHub - swar8080/obsidian-plugin-update-tracker: Know when installed obsidian plugins have updates and evaluate the risk of upgrading
