I love [[Obsidian]]. I don't think it's going anywhere, but also the fact that it's not [[Open Source]] means that it is subject to being pulled from the internet. If it does, here's what we can do: - **Local installers** - keep a copy of a recent-ish version of the installer on a thumb drive - **Never update** - if you've already got it on your machine and it's working for you... just turn off auto-updating and run this version forever - **Rebuild** - the community would rebuild something probably functionally equivalent to Obsidian, perhaps minus [[Obsidian Canvas]] and/or [[Obsidian Bases]] (although I expect the latter would be developed). - Originally this note was about how I'd go about rebuilding Obsidian, but that turned out boring - **Transfer to alternatives** - there's nothing preventing you from writing notes using Notepad or [[VS Code]] or any other text editor. In particular if you don't use [[wiki links]] you can actually traverse the [[Markdown]] links in [[VS Code]] directly. It does a lot of obsidian core functions. - **Read-only** - if you really want your notes to continue to exist as a cohesive whole, projects like [[Quartz Publishing]] can be used to [[Static Site Generator|generate]] a website that functions like your vault. **** # More ## Source - self
