Plugin or app to transcribe hand written text (lemmy.ca)

I'm wondering if there is a way in Joplin (or with another app?) to transcribe hand written text Into plain text.

Basically, I'd like to have an archive copy of my personal journal in Joplin.

I would greatly prefer something open source that runs locally. Ideally free or cheap.

There are few existing OCR solutions, but not sure which one is best. This one has been around for a while and I believe works well but you need some extra setup and have to follow a specific workflow:

Otherwise have a look at the various options on the forum:
