Some apps like Obsidian needs permission to access every file on the device. It is surprising Obsidian isn't getting called out on that very much.

If I'm not mistaken this is because without this permission they can only see audio, video and image files. You wouldn't be able to use it comfortably to do it's job.

Personally I use it with Storage Scopes on GrapheneOS.
