Invasive ads
4/27/2024
Hi, all,
I understand that Chris needs to get some compensation for running this site, which I very much appreciate. But recently the ads have become very invasive. They pop up blocking the main scre...
Speare word processor
4/20/2024
@Dormouse, Ulysses is strictly Apple products, which doesn't work for me, because I spend my work days on Windows. Dabble and other apps like it really focus on long-form fiction writing. Whereas, Spe...
Speare word processor
4/19/2024
Speare has evolved a great deal since this early thread about the writing app. Here's an overview of the latest iteration:

It seems a highly flexible...
Columns.App
4/18/2024
Columns has been around for at least three years. And it has never had any more information than what is currently on the website. I've been intrigued by it, too, but like you a bit trepidatious about...
Another possibility to look into is Heptabase. See this video (I've cued up the appropriate time slot in the video), which demonstrates how to extract text from a PDF and get a link back to the origin...
treeline 2.0

ListPro is still available... now on iPhone. I don't think it is being developed very much these days.
treeline 2.0
3/6/2024
I was a frustrated askSam user... Loved the idea, but could never get it to do what I needed it to do. Noteship does look like a nice app. It is a shame that it hasn't garnered more attention and user...
That is an interesting development. Smart, I think. One reason (the main one) that I've never adopted Bear for writing is that I work on a Windows PC for my job. Two other apps that started in the App...
iThoughts discontinued
2/17/2024
I'm sorry to hear this. I bought iThoughts early on. Turns out, I'm not much of a diagrammer, though I keep thinking I am. iThoughts had some nice features but it always seemed kind of uninspiring... ...
Superlist
2/15/2024
There is no question in my mind that TickTick is the more full-featured task app, but Superlist has two things TickTick does not: infinite nesting of tasks and every task is also a page that can hold ...
Superlist
2/13/2024
In case you're curiosity was piqued by Superlist, the app has now been officially released and is open for anyone to use.
Sentence outliner?
2/12/2024
This most likely isn't the app you're thinking of, but on the off chance it is... Inspiration was (maybe still is) an outliner aimed at K-12. It had the feature of being able to switch between outline...
So they've been up to more at Amplenote than I was aware of. Thanks, Daly.
I don't know much about Logseq, but I'm chiming in anyway.
If you're looking for an app like Logseq that can be used on a Chromebook, I guess you need one that has a browser version or is browser-ba...
I've always liked Curio, so I am glad to learn it is still vibrantly being updated. I'd use it if I didn't spend my work days on a Windows PC. In fact, I think it would be perfect for some of my proje...
Single text file
2/6/2024
@Satis -- I agree. I suggested Workflowy in the comments section of that article. Having a single file that you simply append your information/content to is probably the most friction-free way to save...
Single text file
2/5/2024
I just read a Medium article by someone who uses one big text file for most of his note taking and early writing drafts. Basically, he says it works for him because it is frictionless. I admit this so...
Taskade
2/4/2024
Hi, Daly,
I'm guessing, but I suspect John is clipping the text from the Taskade email updates that go out, and there are special characters in that text which don't render in the text on our forum, ...
Superlist
1/25/2024
Superlist does not come close to matching the features in Click-up. If you're happy with Click-up there is no need to look elsewhere. I've used CU in the past, but it overwhelms me with all its featur...

I haven't used Coda or Anytype, so I can't comment.

Superlist

I have tried a ton of task and project managers. So many of them are very inviting, but I find myself getting overwhelmed by all the tasks and projects I end up putting there... and it doesn't take lo...
Just to be clear, I am not affiliated with Heptabase in any way.

Have you explored Heptabase. It is a collection of a lot of interrelated tools, including a whiteboard tool that you could say is similar to Scapple. It has an iOS version, which I haven't tried, so n...
Nimbus Notes Redux
12/29/2023
There's a lot of shape shifting in the market of PKMs, even if it is sort of subtle. Most of it going from personal knowledge management to team KM or collaboration. Nimbus (less subtle). Most of Wall...
Mellel 6 released (Mac only)
12/16/2023
I am sometimes forced to use MS Word, and everytime I do I think, "could they have made this any more user un-friendly?" I can usually figure out what I need to do, but navigating the ribbons and menu...
