Figured it might be a good discussion question. Originally posted to our friends over at !journaling@sh.itjust.works.
I think of what I have far more as a Personal Knowledge Management System than a journal. I spend far less time on personal feelings and thoughts and “what did I do today?” and a lot more on making it a knowledge repository for Future Me.
I could have answered here, that may have been more logical but, yeah, I have yet to understand how exactly that cross posting thing works, and how I’m supposed to be using it. So, if anyone wants to read my answer it’s posted as a comment over there… Yeah, I also have to figure out how to make an instance-agnostic link to a specific comment, too.
