I feel like this is a feature, not a bug. Obsidian is already super lenient on page titles (too much so, IMO. Just use a title ffs)... It needs to enforce some basic norms to ensure files are portable across contexts and file systems.

I don't want to ask my software to be "lenient" on me. Let me do what I want and have been doing for decades with other software!

The problem is that itโs just a file system under the hood. It saves everything in plain text for you even. The whole point is they want you to keep your data, never be vendor locked. So they canโt โbe lenientโ because itโs fundamentally an OS problem

You totally can though! Obsidian is markdown, so the correct place for arbitrary file names is the page title ("# <your title here>"), or the metadata ("title: <your title here>"). They both support slashes, colons and other punctuation. The first line is the *filename*, not the title. So it needs to conform to your various systems' filename conventions. Notice that your filesystem won't let you add marks like slashes or colons to filenames, either. If you don't like seeing the filename on your page, you can disable "Show in line title" in Settings -> Appearance -> Interface
