Just bought a commercial license for #Obsidian. Had a good read of the license terms and realised it's the right thing to do. @obsidianmd

I like that they're using an honour system for this. I could have kept on using Obsidian while justifying it's (mainly) for personal use, but the fact is, I'm actively using it to earn a living in my company and with my writing.

Thanks, @kepano, for trusting us! Simply *expecting* someone to act with integrity without forcing them to, is a powerful thing.

These kinds of posts are useful reminders. A similar one last year is the only reason I know to pay for Obsidian. I started using it for personal stuff… and when I’d started using it for work I’d forgot on (if I ever knew) that it needed a commercial license.

@ellane @obsidianmd @kepano Timely post Ellane. Decided to upgrage my Catalyst licence to VIP.
