I do have to say after running journo in my home it’s been a huge blessing for me and my partner. It’s nice not having to pay for cloud Journaling that cost me about 20 dollars a user and sadly no way to escape (aka export). So happy I found this solution.
I’ve seen Journiv before, and in selfhosting blogs. The UI looks very nice. If only I had something of value to write.
‘Dear Dumbass: I told you to put gas in the car while you were down at the barn. Now you’re going to have to get on the gator and tote 5 gallons up from the barn. You never listen to me. Take your coat you moron. It’s 10 degrees outside. estúpido!’
Journiv has got me to try journaling seriously for the first time. I’m a bit envious of those able to do so naturally, I’ve been forgetting to make daily entries more often than not
I am glad it is serving it’s purpose. Notification/reminders will come soon to Journiv which will help with forgetting to write :)
Seems pretty valuable to me. If you do write this for a month or year with Journiv’s analytics you can find out
- How much gas you can save overtime
- All the names you call yourself
- What do you forget most :D
Oh I didn’t mean to infer that it wasn’t valuable. I’m just not sure what I have to say is valuable enough to write down. LOL
And I meant that what you to say is valuable enough to write :)
