I really like #DayOne as a journaling app. But the fact that my very sensitive info is out there in a server thousands of miles away and subject to a company's policy makes me nervous.
That's why I prefer to journal in #Obsidian because it is local-first
"... local-first aims to bring all the advantages of the cloud—ubiquity, sync, and collaborative working, but without the cloud's problems."
@liztai this is why, when I started looking for modern alternatives to #FreePlane for #PersonalKnowledgeManagement , I settled on #Dendron, which takes #LocalFirst seriously.
Unfortunately, their funding model didn't pan out, and they had to stop (regular) development https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/discussions/3890
Then again, Dendron, is #AGPL3 licenced and the data is local, and in Markdown format, and the VSCode extension still works, so this is much better than if it had been proprietary. Which is the point

@liztai In the end, I went back to #FreePlane since it is #GPL2 and stores it's data in, more-or-less, human readable format that is also #LocalFirst
It may not be as modern as Dendron, but it still gets the job done. ❤️
