Of course, all the chat apps that allow sending messages to yourself come with free time stamps.

I use this feature on Slack at the least.

In a google workspace you used to be able to create a conversation or whatever they call it, not invite anyone and bam! notes to self. But I think they disabled it now and they don't let you create a new chat if it doesn't have at least 2 people. Might be able to work around it by inviting someone and then kicking them out, I haven't tried.

Before collaborative docs we used to take usability study notes in a group chat; the timestamps were an unexpected but nice bonus.
