Diving into #obsidian note taking tool.

"From personal notes to journaling, knowledge bases, and project management, Obsidian gives you the tools to come up with ideas and organize them."

Why is it called #vault if it is not encrypted locally?

@dbread Because the standard definitions of "vault" do not have anything to do specifically with encryption. A vault is simply a storage concept for something. Size, encryption, color, taste etc aren't part of the basic definition.

@dhry @dhry @dhry Thank you for your reply. My translation program gives me "vault" as "Tresor" in my mother tongue, which implies there needs to be a key for accessing the contents, but there are other translations as well.

I found out that there is a #GPG extension for encrypting the local vault. As I want to encrypt locally, I'll give that a try.
