About Obsidian
Obsidian serves as a local-first markdown writing environment and knowledge base where users build interconnected notes through internal linking and graphical visualization. While core file editing happens offline, users rely on Obsidian Sync for cross-device encrypted data transfer and Obsidian Publish for hosting public websites directly from their vaults. Technical disruptions typically manifest as failures in the background synchronization process, inability to access the community plugin gallery, or errors when pushing live updates to published domains. When these remote components behave inconsistently, users visit this page to see real-time verification of backend health. Rimetry continually polls these specific cloud endpoints from diverse geographic locations to report on current uptime and latency metrics.
Obsidian (obsidian.md) is a productivity service monitored continuously by rimetry from multiple global regions. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds to detect outages, latency spikes, and regional degradations the moment they happen.
Right now Obsidian is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 21 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to obsidian.md are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like Obsidian include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.

Common issues
- · Documents won't load or save

Similar patterns often surface across other productivity providers — cross-check against the global outage map.
Troubleshooting
