Unexpected Sync disconnection on Linux

I’ve noticed at least twice that Sync has unexpectedly disconnected on my Linux desktop. I don’t have enough info to make a bug report, so I thought I would just put a note here to see if anyone else has experienced this.

What happened was that I noticed that a particular note was not being synced on my phone, and the problem was because Sync on the desktop had disconnected. I don’t know when it disconnected.

(By the way, when you reconnect Sync, you get a warning saying that older files will be clobbered. Why is there no option to merge? I think I have lost info that way.)

I have Obsidian installed via Snap, and I wonder if that could be a factor. I rebooted my computer a day or two ago, and Snap may have auto-updated Obsidian.

I am going to switch to AppImage in any case.

Same issue,

Sync disconnects everytime I reboot. Updating the system does not help. I think its an issue with obsidian itself.

The sync disconnects may happen is something tampers with Obsidian’s internal settings or they fail to save for some reason (permissions)
