OpenAI is now required by court order to preserve all ChatGPT logs including "temporary chats" and API requests that would have been deleted if I understand this correctly, it means data retention policies for apps that use OpenAI API simply cannot be honored

Migrated my personal vault to Obsidian Bases and it feels so good 🥰 I was able to translate ~3,000 dataview queries into 30 bases. Makes for a more maintainable approach to bottom-up notetaking. My updated vault template is here: https://stephango.com/vault

Obsidian 1.8.10 is now available to all for desktop and mobile! - Fixed issues with numbered lists getting numbered incorrectly, e.g. when list items have leading spaces, or appear inside neighboring block quotes. - Android: You can now store vaults inside the app private storage which does not require "All files" permission. - Android: Physical keyboards and voice-to-text inputs no longer lose focus. - Android: Fixed bug where obsidian:// URIs would not fire their action if the app was previously closed. - Mobile navigation bar shows up immediately when keyboard is retracting, instead of waiting for it to finish. https://obsidian.md/changelog/2025-04-22-mobile-v1.8.10/
