I have a few options to set-up my personal journal and I intend to journal my process of how to, what's the practical way of writing it all down with writing everything down ?

TRILIUM. https://github.com/zadam/trilium Dig into it and check out all the examples before giving up on it. I've tried every note app I can imagine, and it's hands down the best.

I am even using the API to pull shopping lists from home assistant and add them to my todo list via node-red.

With tailscale and 24/7 access, I never have to worry about missing a thought. While working out this morning, I heard a new word in a song, took me 5 seconds to stop and document that. It's now my home for every thought, idea, plan, code snippet, recipe, home inventory, etc...

It's 100% my trusted system. I roll GTD concepts into it with @contexts and whatnot, so I've even combined all other knowledge management systems into trilium.

I can't recommend it enough.

+1 for Trilium. I also tried a lot of note-taking apps that are out there and Trilium is by far the most robust one.

Not to be a party pooper but I guarantee you it took longer than 5s lol.

Can you clarify on this? I use GTD with nextcloud calendar/tasks.
