I'm developing an Obsidian plugin commercially. I wish there was a higher tier of vetting available to a certain grade of plugin.
IMO they should do something like aur on Arch Linux and have a community managed plugin repo and then a smaller, more vetted one. That would help with the plugin review time too.
Just out of curiosity, what's the plugin? Are there folks interested in paying for plugins?
The plugin is called Relay [0] -- it makes Obsidian more useful in a work setting by adding real-time collaboration.
One thing that makes our offering unique is the ability to self-host your Relay Server so that your docs are completely private (we can't read them). At the same time you can use our global identity system / control plane to collaborate with anyone in the world.
We have pretty solid growth, a healthy paid consumer base (a lot of students and D&D/TTRPG), and starting to get more traction with businesses and enterprise.

Are you worried about being sherlocked at all? I know "multiplayer" is on their official roadmap.
yeah, definitely.
It might not be the most strategic move, but i want to build cool and useful tools, and the Obsidian folks are a big inspiration.
I hope there's a way to collaborate and/or coexist.
