Looking for recommendations on a good FOSS journal/diary app for Android. Preferably encrypted at rest. Cross-device sync isn’t important for me, looking more for a thought dump than anything.
Joplin!
I started using Joplin recently and like it, but I’m not sure it quite fits what I’m looking for in this case
Does it encrypt at rest or only in transit? I haven’t been able to find a clear answer (which makes me believe it’s not)
That, I can’t tell you - I tend to move to pen and paper for anything too sensitive, so I haven’t looked too deeply into that feature
Fair enough - I hadn’t even considered going old school, but that might be a good idea! Thanks for the comments
It has full E2EE, the files are encrypted on your own system and whatever server you use.
edit: you just have to explicitly set it up using your own chosen keyphrase.
It’s encrypted during transit only (if using HTTPS), though you can look into an encrypted filesystem on the server and the clients you use.
Sorry, but you are mistaken. Joplin definitely encrypts data at rest if you enable end-to-end encryption: https://joplinapp.org/e2ee/
Nice! I didn’t realize this was a feature of Joplin!
Have you looked at Notesnook? It has E2EE and data at rest. You could use it without an account if you don’t care about sync. But if you ever did it has apps for every platform as well as a nice web app. There is a free tier and a paid tier. I finished my trial of the paid plan and was offered a 30% off coupon code for a 1 year membership. For $25 I figured worth a try.
I personlly use markor if you are willing to use text files for simple task like that, probabily It will work for you
Maybe logseq?
