Am I the only person who finds the idea of journaling into third party cloud to be an incredibly privacy-invading concept?
I always think of a journal as something containing notes that are raw enough that I would be embarrassed if any other person read them. The idea of sending that over a network to be stored in plain text on someone else's server is just horrifying to me.
I'd rather open JuiceSSH and log into my machine and open vim. Or I could use Synology Drive to edit a plain text document stored on my NAS. Is that really -that much- less convenient than opening a Google Doc? How inconvenient does the task need to be for me to allow random Googlers or their algorithms to read my innermost thoughts?
