It'll take some time, but the more you do it, the more comfortable it gets. At first it's going to feel kind of cringey. That feeling fades with time. Just gotta keep in mind that you're writing for you, not for anyone else. Also jrnl is available through the aur and GitHub. I don't currently run anything other than garuda so I can't speak for how available it is on Debian/fedora/etc
