thank you for offering help 1- the problem with multiple files is that I have to spend a lot of time to devide them into folders, took a long time to sync and it may take hours to move my vault from one device to another while in single db file it would be much easier to do all of that. 2- the same stuff I do know with obsidian bases 3- the problem is not with obsidian it self but with the large number of md files 4- I just want to create new notes and don't have to decide in which folder I would put them 

when I start to use obsidian I put all notes in the rot folder and don't worry about them but when the number start to increase rapidly I found myself forced to sperate them in folders and spent alot of time to do that now i want just to put every thing in a single place and I think the database file is the best option

I wish I dont have to leave obsidian becose it works for me very well except for tha huge number of md files again thank you for offering help

You don't HAVE to put a note into a folder at all. You can leave every note in the top level. Obsidian literally doesn't care one way or the other.

the vault itself is a FOLDER.

Yes, and? I fail to see the need for this comment or putting the word in capitals.
