Obsidian 1.7.1 (early access) is now available to Catalyst members for desktop and mobile. Startup time is significantly faster on mobile. For vaults with 10,000+ notes you can expect to see at least 50% reduction in load time. Editable page previews and footnotes are also improving quickly. Page previews stay open even if the window loses focus or the command palette appears. Pressing "Esc" instantly closes the page preview while editing.

This is Obsidian's first year in the Stack Overflow survey, and it is already the most admired async work tool among developers after Markdown files 🥰
Obsidian appeared for the first time in Stack Overflow's 2024 dev survey and is already second to Markdown files for most admired async work tool. "Obsidian users have no desire to try any other asynchronous tools next year, and nine different groups of asynchronous tools users would like to switch to see why next year."

Nice to see Google Docs rolling out better Markdown support. If you use Obsidian this will make it easier to collaborate with your coworkers who need to use Docs. I ran into this often at my previous company when working on blog posts and internal memos. Next, I'd love to see Google add support for copy/pasting Markdown
