I like this a lot, can you talk about what you are doing to protect user's private data? that's something I'd want to be convinced about before I use it.
On the security front, we're using firebase firestore as the database. So at rest, it's well encrypted.
We're thinking of introducing some sort of encryption via passwords (kinda how I already am doing it on https://maglit.me). E2EE would be quite difficult and would affect the usability.
E2EE is definitely important however, personally I wouldn't use a journaling app that doesn't have this. In which way would it affect usability?

Cloud sync would be quite difficult and I'd like to avoid the backup-restore game that most other apps don't seem to mind, because writedown's focus is on reducing complexity for people.
I'm not someone who uses Notion, I find it rather complicated and most apps that I've tried just try to do too much. Telegram is great for storing notes but it doesn't support markdown.
Handling the keys with E2EE is a big challenge. There's not a normal way to use E2EE without affecting the sync capabilities, login capabilities, offline capabilities or usability.
