A (very) interesting new browser

What do you mean by "Chinese path"?
Opera is developed by a Norway company.
CRIMPing in the future.

For me, ios is just over rated junk. I find it so frustrating to do tasks on the ipad.
I have an ipad since 2011: I doublt if I have accomplished a singel serious task on it. It is just laying around...

I am hooked with Opera: thanks for the free and fast VPN.
Any Windows users here ?

I don't know many windows apps that do my favorite features:

- transparent storage of files to a folder
- smart folders

I also use Windows for some tasks.
For me, Onenote in the Windows so good that I rarely look for another note writing software. Furthermore, many of the cool features that we talk about in the Mac e...
the Markdown support is a surprise.
With Simplenote sync, now, you have an ecosystem.
I am sorry, I have the 2nd Edition of Tinderbox Way. The coming up must then be Edition 3.
Have you read "Digital Paper: A Manual for Research and Writing with Library and Internet Materials". Tinderbox WAY is similar to that. But, I think Digital Paper goes to more details on how to manage...
Yes, I have read the first edition. The second edition is about to come; according to the author (Mark Bernstein). It is good book on the general logic of note taking. But, it has little doesn't expl...
I love Devonthink for it helps me index them without importing. Indeed, I don't store even a single file inside the database. All of my files are stored in Finder and indexed.
I, however, now discov...
Oh, my fault...it can actually a library folder (alias)--and, the notes could be RTF. this is interesting.
My complain with this app is again the database. I always want to index my notes (wherevever I edit them) in Devonthink because I want to use the "see also" feature. The Keep IT app stores files as "k...
For me, a better analogy is that of home and adventure.

- there are softwares which I consider the foundation of my workflow: they are my...

Notebooks as a Ulysses replacement

> It has fewer and less elegant export options.
Why do you need to export? the point of transparently storing files in Finder is to avoid the whole process of export and import. If the app supports t...
I don't think CRIMPing is a cause. It is a life style for adult children.
WE are all adults with child mentality. We go out and test every new release, not because it will solve our problem for good;...
Standard Notes

I think Notebooks does everything this app does. Plus, you don't have to pay subscription fee with Notebooks. Regular Dropbox syn: mac, pc, ipad.
Thanks for the information about Neu. I trying it right now.
About the Devonthink sort, you are right that I can target it to a specific folder. But, I consider the step that exports the local file ...
Sorr, this is the link: https://dellu.wordpress.com/2017/08/14/jotting-applications-in-the-mac/
here is a comparison of the apps I mentioned in here...based on their convinience to jot down notes. I would like to hear from you guys if there is an app that can tick all the boxes.

Outlinely has in-note taggin.
