I use GitHub to journal ideas in the open, see my profile.

You can create a private GitHub repository and simply create a README.md and have a # 24/08/2022 (markdown heading) for each hour, part of day, day or week or month depending how often you journal.

Then add to the top or the end of the journal. Journalling should be something you go to enjoy and unwind and get your thoughts out. It's similar to pulling a piece of string and letting go, it feels cathartic.

You can also interrogate your thoughts and ask WHO WHAT WHEN WHERE WHY recursively for each thought and get to the bottom of things and undergo introspection.
