The last update was in 2020. Electron version is 8.0.

I have been using it since then on linux… however, I am not too sure if I should keep using it?

If I am moving to another app, I am thinking of rednotebook, unless there is something better.

        Yeah you are correct I posted before realizing what sub I was in. I would kill for a opensource version I have tried all of them but keep coming back to obsidian

        Nope but they made the license free to use in most any context. The commercial license requirement has been dropped.

    You should at least play around with the export options and do regular exports. You really don’t want your diary of over 5 years to be stuck in an unmaintained app. And since this seems to be supporting exporting into markdown - maybe try an export and checkout logseq or Obsidian?

    QOwnNotes is a fast loading, Qt based, plaintext editor that supports markdown and preview, plenty of helpful plugins, heavily customizable, has nextcloud support, supports workspaces in the form of note folders.

    No affiliation but a happy user and also sponsor it.

    If you are afraid someone gets access to your computer and then has a ready to use backdoor in that app and you can lose valuable prose, then use something different.

    If not, what else are you worried about?

    If you want a proper journaling app :

    Inner Ink

    Linked

    Rednotebook seems solid

    Having markdown means you can use it in a variety of apps but I’m not sure how many have encryption (obsidian and joplin maybe?)

    You could also try Trilium Next

    I also found Darkwrite. Can export as HTML
