Hi everyone, I’m hogypitersan, the maker of Journal by Paperly. I’ve always struggled with short-term memory—I often forget things and used to rely heavily on note-taking apps just to keep track of what’s important. Writing didn’t come naturally to me at first, but I learned that journaling can actually help improve memory and self-awareness. That inspired me to build a simple web app that combines journaling and a lightweight to-do list. With Journal by Paperly, you can: • ✍️ Write freely in a clean editor • ✅ Create simple daily todos • 🎭 Track your emotions using emojis to reflect how you feel I built this primarily for myself, but I hope it can also help others who want a more personal and minimal journaling space. And yes—it’s completely free to use 💛 Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!
