I have been using Day One since it was in beta. I am a writer and digital content specialist so I do a lot of writing. Day One has grown in capability and beauty since its inception -- I use it more and more everyday.
To be frank, I tried to use EverNote but found to cumbersome and a bit much. For my mind, Day One provided the perfect palelette for me to sit down and write anything -- the tag it, or easily move it to another journal. It allows up to 10 journals, one of which I have synced to my Instagram, as I like to keep a record of what I post there.
If you are writing daily, doing Morning Pages, if you blog and need a place to work on drafts, Day One's set up is so easy. It syncs over the cloud to your phone (I'm on Apple products, recognizes voice to text smoothly and allows images to be easily drag and dropped.
The interface with tagging could be slightly more intuitive but the team is constantly doing updates and I am sure that will be worked out soon.
I love it and recommend it to anyone writing.

I journal on and off but I find it difficult to get myself to make it stick as a habit. Physical journaling is tough sometimes because I'm not home etc etc... But I'm thinking of trying out the Day One journal. Source: 11 months ago

For general diary writing, I use Day One. It's clean, easy to use, and has no frills. You just...write. When I got it, it was one price but now it's a subscription for $2.99 a month. Source: 11 months ago
This certainly could be useful for me personally, but it would need more functionality. I think the _full_ project could be very useful though. However I would ask, how is this different from e.g. https://standardnotes.com/ and other note systems available ? - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

I've been using Standard Notes'[0] free tier for a while now without issues. Far superior to Evernote. And apparently EN uses your data for machine learning so they can monetize their free users. Standard operating procedure. [0] https://standardnotes.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

- How do I get my data OUT of this thing, if I decide it isn’t right for me? C) If you’re going to go down the “unlike other note-taking platforms” route, it might be valuable to explicitly help people make the comparison in terms of features/approaches/architecture/trade-offs etc. How should one compare this against [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md)?
