   I live in Day One

   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.

   🏁 Competitors: Evernote, Scrivener, Microsoft Word, Google Docs

   👍 Pros:    Intuitive|Beautiful search experience|Instagram|Easy user interface|Inexpensive|Great for writers|Great value for the money

   👎 Cons:    Tagging needs to be made easier

  Have you tried dayoneapp.com - its been a long time since I used it, it's more of an iOS app than Windows but I think it works on the web. Source: over 2 years ago

• desperate for help

  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: about 3 years ago

  There’s been journaling apps since iPhone came out, like the excellent Day One. Source: about 3 years ago

• What laptop and apps do you use to write?

  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: about 3 years ago

• Anthropic reverses privacy stance, will train on Claude chats

  Maybe I'll use the remainder of my subscription time to help improve Void. It's already pretty good. https://voideditor.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Anthropic co-founder on cutting access to Windsurf

  Void is basically the same thing, but open source and better. It's easy to use with any provider API key, even LM Studio for local models. You can use it with free models available from OpenRouter to try it out, but the quality of output is just as dependent on the model as any other solution. https://voideditor.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Best AI editor for local models?

  Currently editing in Cursor, using agents heavily as I'm a solo dev with limited time. Been exploring running models locally and looking into Zed & Void (https://voideditor.com/). Anyone have opinions on these? Downloading both to try but wondering if the free plan on Zed is doable for full time software engineering, mostly working on next.js sites & native mobile apps in Swift/Kotlin. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: How have you integrated LLMs in your development workflow?

  The competition in AI editors is a bit silly at this moment. Everyone and his dog are "building" an AI assisted editor now by duct taping Ollama onto VSCode. I don't like my data being sent to untrusted parties, so I cannot evaluate most of these. On top of that, the things keep evolving as well, and editors that I dismissed a few months ago, are now all of a sudden turning into amazing productivity boosters,... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
