The Peekaboo plugin enhances privacy in Obsidian by allowing users to selectively hide and reveal files and folders within their vault. It provides password-protected configuration for hidden items and supports granular control, including the ability to hide specific files, entire folders, or use wildcards for pattern-based hiding. Users can easily manage visibility using the command palette or a ribbon icon for quick access. Exception files can be configured to remain visible within hidden directories, offering flexibility.

The Explorer Hider plugin allows Obsidian users to hide specific files and folders from the file explorer and bookmarks panel for a more streamlined workspace. Users can right-click on files or folders to hide them, with support for attribute-based rules to manage multiple items efficiently. The plugin features toggles to display or hide all hidden items and offers flexible configuration for managing hidden rules and their application. Advanced settings enable users to create custom CSS-based rules for precise control, while an experimental feature adds file-menu options in the bookmarks panel. This plugin is ideal for users seeking a cleaner, more focused workspace in Obsidian.
