Great job! A+ for having the fdroid install. Have you looked at sandstorm.io for self hosting support? I like your landing page. It's fairly clear the values your offering but I'd expand on what clients you are going to end up using after migrating etc. """It seamlessly integrates with Android so you won't even notice you are using it.""" Might become """It seamlessly integrates with the current Android calendar/phone/contacts applications so you won't even notice you are using it.""" Nicely done. I think it definitely is an area that needs this or something very close to it.

Thanks. :) I haven't looked into sandstorm yet because while I want to let people self-host if they want, it's not a priority for me. I'd rather use every free moment I have to improve the app, and because of the end-to-end encryption, the added security/privacy is negligible. Rewording: using the word "applications" is a good idea, thanks. I need to see how to reword it exactly, but that may just be what I need.

  Sandstorm does additionally protect people (and you) from your business model changing, "self hosting" is a pipedream for most people without sandstorm. I think journaling is an ok word for what its worth. You might add some actions that people can do with it however ie "you can replay and review any changes". Its a great feature its a question of lighting up their brain the right way.

    Oh, I like replay and review! My brain was stuck on Git lingo, like show and revert, though these seem much more natural. I agree with your comment about protecting people, this is one of the reasons the server is also open source. Though I believe that if the need arises and demand is there, either myself or someone else will make it happen, and I already share all the tools (code) to make it happen, so people are protected.
