Thanks! Was feeling too lazy to read the docs for Syncthing so this video was really helpful!

Thank you so much man!! It worked like a charm. Anyone else trying out google drive option, you need to first download drive for desktop, and then choose the obsidian vault folder and sync it to the google drive :)

Damn! This was the best tutorial video I've seen here on YouTube, thanks you're a lifesaver man.

Thank you very, very much. Syncthing is quite the solution for me, and it can also sync other folders, so I also started to sync the configuration files of some apps I use as well. Obsidian is much more useful when I can use it accross all of my devices, too. Definitely a quality of life improvement all around.
