Trusting something as private as my personal diary to 3rd party sounds like a scary idea from a privacy point of view. Imagine someone hacking this site, exposing your very private information.
I wish there was something like that end-to-end encrypted. You are already using E2E encryption for the communication channel (WhatsApp). I wish there was a hookup to store the same data without breaking down the chain of encryption. WhatApp should look into that. Something like ProtonDrive connected to WhatsApp and APIs.
- smashah 2y agoYou can easily develop and self host such a thing without whatsapp business api
- rahulg 2y agoI'd love to figure out a way where entries are encrypted but also the features/user-friendliness is not sacrificed.
- loloquwowndueo 2y agoYeah I wouldn’t anyone to mess with my milk either. (You typoed diary and I couldn’t resist ;) )
- create-username 2y agoMy thoughts exactly when all mighty Tim Cook granted us iPhone addicts a Journaling app
- ethangk 2y agoI think Day One probably fits the bill for you there. E2E encrypted. I’ve been using it for about a decade
- sutra_on 2y agoI am not sure if this fits your usecase - but why not just to use encrypted Notes on a Mac or iPhone (if you have an Apple device), and set a daily reminder? What does WhatsApp have that Notes doesn't?
- WhyNotHugo 2y agoYou can use XMPP+OMEMO for this. E2EE and self hosted.
- oarsinsync 2y agoDiarium is the only thing I’ve found that actually fits the bill, where there is cross platform support and self hosted E2EE. Unfortunately, Diarium also reduces image quality significantly, even with their ‘higher quality’ setting. My Day One diary export is 90% larger than the data store Diarium syncs to webdav, the loss of fidelity is especially obvious when looking at screenshots.
