Replaces Day One Premium ($34.99/yr).

Write daily entries, tag them, search them, review past entries on this day. No Day One cloud sync, no Day One subscription, no vendor access to your private thoughts. Your data lives in a SQLite file on your disk that you can back up by copying a folder, move to another machine, or query directly with any SQLite tool. The binary keeps running if Stockyard disappears tomorrow, because it is Apache 2.0 and you have a copy.
