Bear isn’t great at Daily Notes, but org-journal is
I don’t want to bend Bear into being a Daily Notes repository. If I’m gonna do that, I may as well use Obsidian (don’t wanna go there, either). Plus, if the Bear developers had wanted us to do daily notes in it, they would have designed it for that. But org-journal is very good at collecting an arbitrarily large number of daily notes in sequence in one giant, immutable file. Or in my case, in one giant file per month. And with Drafts’s ability to understand org-mode, I can write right in today’s org-formatted note from anywhere and paste it into real org-journal when I get to the computer at night. I could do that with beorg and Dropbox sync, but as many times as I add to a day’s notes, I don’t want to rely on beorg to not mess up my files. And I don’t want to edit real org files when I’m only using the phone, so I’m cheating and using Drafts with its iCloud sync (not iCloud Drive) to do the work. Drafts is so ultra stable that it feels like a local/paper file on my phone anyway.
Now I just need to make an org-mode formatting keyboard row in Drafts.
