folder view is only a single level
And the tags view makes the app even more flexible.
good look at TextNut or MWeb
Write!,
quick to dismiss apps that don’t meet your not entirely well-defined criteria.
Keep It, s where I manage things like web pages (saved out as PDF files);

- ‘folder view is only a single level - yes, not tree view
* ‘TextNut or MWeb’ - will look into
* Write! - still looking into
- ‘not sure why you make such a distinction between “titles only” and “content only”; in my experience such differentiation is rarely useful’
- will raise on a diff post, too big of a topic
- ‘tagging’ - i haven’t yet seen any good uses of ‘tagging’ tho if someone had some especially good links, would like to see it
- ‘quick to dismiss apps that don’t meet your not entirely well-defined criteria.’
- that’s good to know that’s one impression, i know what are the important and minimal needs and i know what is important overall (tho ill be happy to see evidence to the contrary for anyone that knows on the ‘search’ topic)
- maybe tagging is a better, tho would seem unlikely
**annotation**
* ‘Keep It’ - if this can highlight and save notes, and upon returning to the same webpage, it shows the info/notes you put, then that would fit for the annotation use case
- ‘has a full multilayer folder tree’ - tree view? ok
- ‘Curiota’ - does not
- ‘“smart” folders (called bundles)’ - unknown
- ‘search on comments, tags and source’ - unsure if helpful/useful/good
the needs are separate, but will look into ‘keep it’ to see if it does the main needs all in one software, and most importantly, does them well

Just noticed that someone put together a nice Markdown cheatsheet for Boostnote.

They also have an active Twitter feed detailing updates.
