MindNode adds outlining to mind maps
12/21/2020
I intend to try out Trasno but its onboarding is geekily awkward and confusing, which doesn't necessarily bode well for the app.
When signing up there's a field for your email then one which simply ...

Most online mind map services offer the ability to host nicely formatted maps, but it's nice to also be able to host outlines. Not something I'd need but I can see its usefulness for others. The kille...

A couple of focused state-sponsored attacks on a handful of server machines has absolutely nothing to do with what we're discussing here, however.
Outlinely gets a (minor) update
12/9/2020
I wouldn't rush to follow them because they have a long history of jumping from app to app on a yearly basis for both notes and reminders. And their priorities tend towards robustness in the iOS space...

The latest episode of AppStories details the switch to Craft from Notion by the two hosts of the show.

UK-based writer/director Julian Simpson wrote about it in a recent personal newsletter:
"And so to Craft. Oh my God, Craft. Michael Marshall Smith recommended it to me a week or so ago, and I tried i...
Libreoffice gets folding
12/5/2020
Ah okay, thanks!
I looked into it a little more. Current app version is 7.01 but folding won't be a standard feature until v7.1 in February. Settings and implementation are clunky and a little ugly, ...

Sorry, what does that mean?
It only imports web pages and PDFs. I could see this being useful for many grad students, but I work primarily with ePubs, sometimes even converting PDFs to ePub, because of the better viewing experie...

Great example of cherrypicking quotes and characters and data to build an unsupported claim, namely that workers need to be told more what to do.

Any follow-up on Notion for outlining and writing? I don't need its project management features, just wondering about how it fares for outlines and writing and output. Did it get keyboard commands for...
Tree app - macOS

As someone mentioned there's Ginkgo, designed for tree-based writing more than light outlines. Its development has been in limbo for well over a year. You can view the FAQ in Gingko format here:

Tree app - macOS

The dev pulled the app. It can still be downloaded from one of those app repositories like download.cnet.com but you're left with a trial version and no way to pay for it. (But it still works!)
