2019 reflection question

I’ve discovered that what I want is a combination of TreeSheets and workflowy and [[linking]] that idealy would use plain text / markdown / html for its format. I’ve been experimenting with Excel trying to create something that gets most of each but sadly lacks the best of each.

As always for me, the two most important features by far are scale (maintaining speed even under huge loads) and instant-search. Unfortunately nothing except some text editors and search engines do both (Sublime Text, EmEditor, Everything search, X1 search, Lookeen in some cases). Excel and workflowy come close. dynalist, checkvist, moo.do, etc, do not (they crawl under heavy loads). And none of the text editors do the powerful outlining, [[linking]], or freeform nested grids of treesheets.

So I defiantly continue to CRIMP!!!
