It’s a free, private online journal with a focus on mental health.

I spent $4k usd in the domain name in 2015 and around another $4k in operating costs since then.

It has virtually zero marketing and has organically picked up around 1,500 users. I use it myself every day which is success enough for me. Fun project that has helped me land a few jobs, and my scant user base seems to dig it.

How do you encrypt such a thing?

Is it encrypted at rest?

I would be too paranoid to put personal stuff on some website, if I don’t know the encryption techniques and technology used behind it.
