There are many markdown based journal programs, some with encryption. Do these not work for you?



My bits were on MacOS, Linux, Win, iOS, and required usage w/o internet (so I could work on airplanes, etc.).. so _something_ was always missing (between those + encrypted + searching).


Can you suggest any in particular?


My personal choice for markdown notes is https://github.com/glushchenko/fsnotes


If you’re a Vim user, Vimwiki is awesome:

- https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki

I don't have much experiences with them (flat text files aren't my style), but a friend seems happy with Joplin.

A HN search illustrates the amount of markdown note apps available: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...


Joplin would be perfect if it allowed quick inter-note linking. Obsidian and Zettlr seem to do this much better. But for journaling I love Joplin.
