Standard Notes
10/19/2018
Hi, Alexander,
Yes, it is plain text only. However, when you purchase a subscription, you have access to extensions, several of which provide a markdown interface within the editor.

I don't have any experience with Joplin.

Standard Notes

This is going to be a strange endorsement for Standard Notes, which I haven't seen talked about much here.
This is a fairly robust Evernote replacement, with apps for iOS, MacOS, Windows, Linux, Andr...

Yes.

Journaling, a simplistic view
10/12/2018
We discussed a new diary/note-taking app called Diarly in this thread. Diarly just came out with an iOS companion, which in early testing syncs nicely via iCloud with the MacOS version.

Omnifocus 3.0 to come out Monday
10/5/2018
The Hit List for MacOS received an update just a week ago. I think it was just a maintenance release to address some Mojave issues, but it isn't abandoned. Just want to make that clear.

Everdo: VERY nice cross-platform GTD app
10/5/2018
Yes, but I didn't quite get how it was laid out. I thought the list of Desktop improvements was from December of last year. I see now that it was from 12 days ago.

Are you worried that the list of improvements is now nine months old? Are we sure that development is continuing?
OutlineEdit 2 is now available
10/4/2018
I've always been partial to this handy outliner. It does not have an iOS app, so you'll use it only on your Mac.
Here's what is new:
- OutlineEdit 2 comes with an all-new editor core to deliver qua...
TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
10/2/2018
Thanks for the link. I'm a long-time TheBrain user and this may be the release that has me most excited to get my hands on.

TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
9/30/2018
The learning curve for TheBrain is way lower than it might seem just from looking at it. Also, the developer has so many instructional videos that it makes it a cinch to get the hang of it.

Thanks for the update. Personally, I like seeing the beta edition in the headline.
TheBrain v10 Beta is Available
9/27/2018
Thanks, Paul.
If well implemented, that will be a very useful feature... and explains, perhaps, why they were in no rush to bring back drag and drop of emails from Outlook into the Plex.

Processes not tools
9/25/2018
I didn't say I don't use Microsoft products. I am forced to. I am saying I don't want to rely on them exclusively. Microsoft's aim is clearly to herd everyone into their Office 365 annual subscription...

Thank you for actively joining this forum's discussions. I appreciate what you've shared with us about your own revelations in doing information work.
I would like to know your definition of "mainstr...
I feel like a broken record, but I think you should look at TheBrain. No, it isn't open source, but it has a 20-year track record. It is similar to a wiki in that you can create as many links as you w...
Thanks for the link, Andy.
It is so interesting to learn about the varied ways people go about organizing their information. One day someone will describe a system and everyone will say, "That's the...
Evernote in trouble?
9/5/2018
I've said this before, but I think Evernote should do away with the free version and charge a moderate $15 a year or something like that. If someone isn't willing to pay that small amount, then why gi...
TheBrain v10 Alpha is available
8/30/2018
FWIW, they don't charge for upgrades if you're a subscriber, which I'd guess most of their users are. So they don't get more money just because they issue a new version. Issuing new versions, however,...
ResophNotes still has a pulse
8/27/2018
It had been a long time since I checked to see if there was a new version of ResophNotes -- the Notational Velocity-style Windows Notes App -- because it hadn't been updated in a long time. But I just...
TheBrain v10 Alpha is available
8/27/2018
Doesn't look as if they've added the one feature I'm looking for: the ability to drag an email from Outlook into the Plex to create a thought. Version 8 could do this. I find the inability to do so ha...
There's an old-timey Windows writing app called Writer's Blocks. It probably isn't what you're looking for, but I'm mentioning it just in case:

Curiota has updated to version 3
8/24/2018
I know some of the folks here use Curiota from Zengobi, the maker of Curio. Just want to let you know that version 3 is available on the App Store.

Tom Davis just responded on the Zoot listserv with this about help documentation:
"I'm far enough along now that I can say with some certainty that the documentation will be done in September. I'm f...
Hi, Alexander,
I believe you are correct. Typora does not have an iOS app (yet -- not sure if they're planning one). I got that wrong in my review. I'll correct it. Sorry for the confusion and thanks...
