it’s worth noting that if you want obsidian to show up in application launcher like Rofi you’ll need to create a .desktop file in your user’s ~/.local/share/applications directory. As an example, this is what I have for my Apache Directory Studio:
[Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application Name=Apache Directory Studio Exec=/home/trivir/ApacheDirectoryStudio/ApacheDirectoryStudio Icon=/home/trivir/ApacheDirectoryStudio/icon.xpm
I’m still installing obsidian otherwise I’d post that example lol
