Finally seriously looking at #Obsidian Sync.

Where should I store my vault on my #Mac? I feel so lost! For years × ∞ I've put everything in Dropbox or iCloud, but that, I hear, is a recipe for sync troubles.

* looks at computer as if for the first time, confused expression on previously confident face *

Why is my Documents folder greyed out? Where am I? *Who* am I ?? Help me, obi-@obsidianmd, you're my only hope!

I use the Obsidian Git plugin at https://github.com/denolehov/obsidian-git to keep my vault backed up.

This works with a private Git repository (like the private ones I use on Github).

I would only recommend this if you are already familiar with git - there are a couple of things that are less obvious about how it works. But for me and my workflows it's good.
