Open Sourcing of Obsidian

I still strongly believe that very sensitive plugin like obsidian-sync, which uploads private (or company data!) to the cloud, promising “end-to-end encryption” should be open sourced and auditable.

I agree with this point. I can understand that the owners of Obsidian don’t want to open-source the whole application, that’s fully within their right and we as users can either accept that or use a different application. But when you’re talking about “end-to-end, zero-knowledge encryption”, those words can only really have any meaning when the code behind it is open-sourced and auditable. Otherwise, who’s to say they don’t store the key?
