Does anyone have any recommendations for a good open source journaling app that can rival Day One? I'm looking for something end-to-end encrypted—I know Day One claims to be E2E, but I'm not sure I trust it. I use Joplin for my general note taking, but It's not really a suitable alternative for journaling.

I gave up on FOSS alternatives and journal exclusively in Obsidian. it's not open source, but the file format is simple text files. Which for me, was a must.
