Anyone has an alternative where I can use simple markdown files (in a folder or google drive) as the primary datasource?

I am using obsidian on the Mac, but on the go I have no real solution. (I want to avoid using the obsidian mobile app because it forces you to use Obsidian Sync)

> it forces you to use Obsidian Sync

How so? I use Obsidian on both my laptop and my phone and sync my files using Syncthing. You could probably also use Dropbox something.

You need to use Obsidian Sync if you have an iPhone. IIRC it’s because the third-party storage APIs are limited on iOS in such a way that makes it non-feasible for Obsidian. Something about bulk editing/access.

Obsidian works just fine with iCloud.
