New app, Bike
4/17/2022
I think you left WriteRoom off this list. It is still for sale through the Mac App Store, but hasn't been updated in 9 years.

Anyone who wants a Mac-based single-pane outliner should look at OutlineEdit:

New app, Bike
4/17/2022
I have to admit my reaction was, I wonder how long until Jesse abandons Bike.
As I recall he was supposed to be working on a new editor for Folding Text (or was it one of his other projects). My gues...
This is a very interesting thread. Thanks, Dellu, for getting it started with your thoughtful posting about your experience.
Your ideas about note taking fit somewhat with my thinking. I've always be...

Bill,
I definitely bow to your greater technical experience (written without an ounce of sarcasm), and no need to apologize for an engaging ramble!

Bill,
I am glad to have you interpreting 22111's savagely long posts.
All technology, as it advances, takes users away from the nuts and bolts. People used to tune their own cars. A long time ago, y...

I am not a tech specialist, but having a foot in both Windows and Mac environments, I agree entirely with Bill. I hate Windows (which I probably would not, if I didn't have the Mac experience to compa...

Bill,
Thanks for the reference to Lattics. Very interesting looking app. While I get your objection to Agenda, to my mind Lattics is a very different animal. I want to use Agenda for managing project...

Agenda has just gotten a major update. You can see a video about these updates here:

- bi-directional linking
- slash commands (actually back slash)
- auto completion

Supernotes
3/29/2022
Still wondering if anyone has experience with Supernotes. They recently issued version 2, which seems to me to be a much improved version.

I think it may be time to repossess your CRIMP secret decoder ring.

Hi, Bill,
You might want to take a look at Legend, if you have not already. It feels to me like it provides a "plain text" document approach, but with the advantage that you can set up multiple views...
alternative to Evernote for recipes

I might try OneNote. It has a pretty good Evernote import process.

Thank you for the clarification. I've looked at the Document overview many times, but I haven't thought to unfold the headings to navigate through my outlines. I will be interested in hearing what Bil...
My Medium article about Legend

Hi, Jay,
It doubles my appreciation for any app when I suggest useful features and find they already exist. Yes, that default view feature is what I was asking about.
However, I don't even see a ha...

3/4/2022
Hi, Jay,
I just read the comments by Bill, which I agree with... except that I think videos are always helpful in two ways:
1. Showing how an app works
2. Demonstrating use cases that can help peopl...
Scrintal

BTW, I meant to add to my comment about Scrintal that one of the things that makes me a bit more enthusiastic about this app is that they promise to make the notes you curate be exportable to usable f...
Scrintal
2/27/2022
There is yet another app that is in early beta and trying to work its way into the visual note-taking field. It is called Scrintal. They describe it as "if Miro and Obsidian had a baby!"
Anyway, if y...

Heptabase
2/21/2022
I agree that charging $7 a month at this point in the development is a bit presumptuous. They do offer a one-week money back guarantee... not very generous, but it does let you give the app a try out ...
Heptabase
2/17/2022
I've been reviewing the relatively new app Heptabase. It still has a long way to go to be fully functional for me, but I am very intrigued by the potential.
With Heptabase, you write notes in cards.....
He's going to roam from Roam
2/17/2022
Interesting back and forth on Roam.
I could never warm up to Roam myself, but I saw that as just that it didn't fit my style of note-taking (or lack thereof). Roam does have room for improvement, as ...

Robin,
Congratulations on version 3. I always admired your previous versions and am looking forward to trying out the new one.

Thanks for the nice comments, Sarah.
I think that was the first software article I published to Medium. I haven't done much on that platform yet, but I'm making an effort to do more. We'll see how th...

Hi, Bill,
Thanks for the nice comments about my article.
I understand that frustration with Legend. I have experienced it myself, giving up on the app the first couple of times I tried it. Even now ...
