“THAT APP WILL NOT EXIST NOR WILL ANYTHING YOU TYPE INTO IT. The history of computing has copious evidence to back me up on that bold statement. The evidence shows that [a journaling app] will likely be long gone in 20 years...Maybe when the company dies they’ll give you an exit plan to save your work or maybe they won’t. Even if you still have the files twenty years from now you won’t have a working app to open them with. Like those ZIP Disks in [the writer’s] basement, your best hope will be to have some old computers with the right app to be able to open them up and print them out.
