+1 to that. It’s really annoying that you have to use your mouse every time you want to copy something from Obsidian to another app

This is perhaps the most annoying part of Obsidian. I can deal with having to use my mouse when I need to change panes, but for copy-pasting to/from system clipboard, I want to be able to use the vim way, especially since I use a tiling window manager and don’t have to touch my mouse to switch programs.

The vimrc plugin implements this.
