my files are on windows+ntfs (indeed a mounted veracrypt volume). shared by samba for arm chromebook’s linux’s desktop obsidian. ps: the linux vm mount by using smbnetfs.
it’s ok if all are windows.
but for that ONE time i tried using CB’s linux obsidian, it sucked. everything setting was gone.
I wouldn’t mount a different file system’s data for sensitive information (regardless of Linux’s capabilities). There’s nothing to gain (my git vault is 1.5 GB), unless you have a measly (say, 20GB) hard drive/partition.
i exclusively used only windows obsidian with that samba share,
after using CB’s linux obsidian to open it, when i first return back to the windows obsidian.
all settings are gone. colors, exclude-directories etc which used me lot’s of hours, gone.
so i report here and if many people report same, then there is problem.
for me i don’t have time to make another install, make video and repeat several times for statistics.
It is your .obsidian folder that has all your settings. Obsidian will not overwrite that folder, regardless from where you access it.
Did you rename .obsidian to something else before?
