Gamu Journal: Offline Encrypted Diary
Your thoughts. Your rules. No cloud. No accounts. Private.
What it does
Gamu Journal is the private, offline journal that puts you back in control. Write freely with rich text and Markdown, capture moments with photos and voice notes, track your mood over time, and organize everything your way — with custom folders, themes, and fonts. Your entries never leave your device. No accounts. No subscriptions required. Secured with biometrics or PIN, and backed up only when you choose. Start writing today. Stay private, forever.

https://github.com/inoda/private_journal Built this to use myself, and I'm curious if anybody would be interested in using it. I'm also wondering if anybody has tips to make it more secure (I'm super super new to encryption and whatnot). The security is probably a bit overkill since chances are that nobody cares about what I'm journaling, but it is fun to implement from a code standpoint.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
