A bit of exciting news. I'm joining Obsidian (@obsdmd) full-time as CEO! ✨
I've spent about 20 years building things online, and learned a lot along the way. Obsidian is built on strong values. My goal is to create the structure that helps us uphold those values for as long as possible.
Obsidian is - Free for personal use - Built on durable open file formats, no lock-in - Private, offline-first, and E2E encrypted - Endlessly customizable via API/plugins Above all, Obsidian is 100% user-supported. There are no investors pushing us to compromise on these values.
I believe these strong values are why Obsidian has such a kind and dedicated community. It's genuinely one of the most generous and friendly places online. There is nothing I'd rather do than help Obsidian fulfill its potential, and I'm excited to commit myself to it fully 😊
