> it would be “piruletas” (at least in Spain Spanish). In Spain Spanish I never heard them called anything else than "chupachup" (regardless of brand), guess it's a bit of a "Kleenex/facial tissue" syndrome going on there.
What about the classic heart-shaped bright red "piruleta" from the "fiesta" brand?

#43Read this as "dairy app" and had so many questions
"one entry per day" takes on a whole different meaning that way.

#44People usually put pretty intimate private thoughts in diaries so I'm curious how your app handles preserving each user's privacy. Are files encrypted or only stored on a user's local machine or something?
Self-hosted: your data lives entirely on your own machine/server and obviously I never see it. That's the primary privacy model the app is designed around.
piruet.app (my hosted instance): you're basically trusting me. (I know, trusting a random stranger on the internet... right?)
Other things I can tell you: Passwords are bcrypt-hashed and I can't recover them, but journal entries are stored in a SQLite database on the server. There's no at-rest encryption of content, so in principle the server's administrator could access the entries. I don't do it on principle and there's no infrastructure set up to do so, but I can't make a technical guarantee of that.
If you just don't trust the person hosting it, I'd honestly recommend self-hosting yourself.
At-rest encryption of entries is something I'd like to add, it's just not there yet. In the meantime, piruet.app is best treated as a demo/trial environment rather than a permanent home for sensitive writing.
If you have thoughts on how to approach encryption in a way that doesn't break usability (search, rich text, etc.) I'd genuinely love to hear them.

Entries are stored in a SQLite database, and uploaded images sit on disk under the configured DATA_DIR. Both are in a single Docker volume.

Can confirm that that username and password are not working in the login page.
I have tested many times, I have asked other people too... I cannot replicate what you are experiencing, sorry.

#48Very nice! The diary app market is super saturated, but diaries are such a personal thing that there's never really too many, since everyone has different requirements. I did try many, but also decided to build my own. I should be done soonish, I really need it haha

That's a lucky escape. For some reason car manufacturers have this issue Mitsubishi Pajero (renamed in Spain). Ford Pinto (renamed in Brazil). Toyota MR2 (renamed in France although slightly different issue). Honda Fitta (renamed in Scandi countries)
I would like to add Nissan Moco (snot/mucus in Spanish) to that list.
I still laugh every time I see one though, which is almost every day...
