Audio didn’t really catch on for journaling either; save podcasters. It’s reasonably easy to store for most of us on this platform. For most people it has the same search problem.

I used to take audio notes in the car, because it’s easy to do. But I never went back and listened. Maybe if it could be transcribed reasonably well it would work out. Some dictate to their phones quite a bit these days.

And dictating to a device that can provide accurate transcription such as an AI-enabled virtual assistant is just another way to get to the end product of a searchable, indexable digital text. I'd count this as keeping a written journal. Sure, the price of entry is higher than a pencil and a pad of newsprint paper, but it's written text.
