Journiv is a self-hosted, privacy-first journaling application with mood, activity, and goal tracking, prompt-based journaling, media uploads, analytics, and full-text search. It runs on your own infrastructure via Docker with SQLite or PostgreSQL storage, JWT/OIDC authentication, and zero telemetry.

Use cases

  • self-host a private journaling app on my homelab
  • track my daily mood and activities with goal progress
  • journal with writing prompts without a cloud service
  • search across years of journal entries with full-text search
  • keep therapy or mental health notes off cloud providers
  • export my journal to markdown and for portability
  • connect my Immich photos to journal entries

When to choose

  • you want complete data ownership with no telemetry or third-party access
  • you run a homelab, NAS, or VPS and want Docker-based deployment
  • you need mood, activity, and goal tracking alongside journaling
  • you want OIDC/SSO integration and multi-user support
  • you need open export formats like JSON, Markdown, and HTML

When to avoid

  • you want a polished, stable product - it is beta software with possible breaking changes
  • you prefer a hosted, zero-setup cloud journaling service
  • you need native mobile apps today (they are listed as coming soon)
  • you require a permissive open-source license - the license is custom open-core
