Planning & executing

Todoist also has kanban boards, but I wouldn't recommend either for project management with file attachments as being particularly robust

Erica from Dynalist/Obsidian freely cops to having created Dynalist at a time when Workflowy had been stagnating in development for a while and seemed to be moribund. (Shortly after Dynalist's rise in...
Moo.do re-branding..... wait for it....!
7/31/2021
I wonder if the people who paid $59 for the lifetime moo.do subscription back in 2017 will continue to get full access to the rebranded service, or whether service will be considered ended and phased ...
I own DevonSphere and it does a serviceable job but I rarely need to exclusively search PDFs and I don't find it that pleasurable to use. (One of the reasons I don't use DevonThink anymore.)

Two additional online writing apps

Most of the people I know who use Scrivener professionally are daunted by its complexity and only use a small percentage of its features. I own Scrivener but I don't use it because it's too clunky and...

Is Toodledo dead?

When you first posted about their StackSocial offer in 2019 I figured they were either trying to inject some income during a cashflow-poor period, or they were hoping to gussy up their user numbers fo...
Artisanal software sale
7/9/2021
Nine. (Though two are older versions I never updated because of disuse.) But I only use one daily, and maybe 1-2 more monthly. Good group of apps though.
Anyone using Roadmap by Swiftapp?
7/3/2021
I haven't used it but it looks interesting, has a 7-day free trial, and the yearly price is low.
Other options include project manager Quire.io (free for now) or a kanban boards with swimlanes like K...

iCloud is extremely convenient; it's the main way I share files.

Some developers don't use iCloud because (a) their apps are cross-platform and need to be usable on non-...
Mac software recommendations
6/29/2021
At this point I think any Mac app that is siloed is going to be relatively niche no matter how good it is. For me it's imperative to be able to access and create/edit on iOS, and a lot of people who w...

Nice. I downloaded it and played with it a bit.
A couple of requests:
Indenting/outdenting into a new line: When I outline I constantly make new indent nodes and then outdent again. With the outline...

Very nice. I've been playing with the app, and while I don't need the integrated collaboration features I can see them, and the app, being extremely useful to a lot of people.

OmniOutliner Styles are powerful, but very clumsy and a little buggy. I use a simple but custom style for my notes with main headings bolded but everything in the same font and size, but for no reason...

You're asking a probably too-broad question, especially for this forum. Vellum, for example is designed as a sophisticated tool for ebook creation, and is really outside the scope of the kinds of disc...

Completely agree. When I used DT it became purely a repository for large numbers of files on which I could more easily search and find correspondences. But it was a clunky note-taking app. If you want...
