Purely journaling foss app

• Presently

  Android app for recording gratitude journal entries -- over 1 million installs, contribute today!

I liked Presently and used it for over a year before switching all my journaling to Obsidian.

• Trilium Notes

  278 25,378 9.6 JavaScript

  Build your personal knowledge base with Trilium Notes

Trilium is what I use for journaling. It does exactly what you want (and much more if you want to take advantage of it). It has the ability to be customized through scripts, and one of the examples it comes with is adding a button to create a new journal entry for the day. It also has a calendar button that lets you go to the journal entry for whatever day you select. In both cases it will create the note if it doesn't exist.
