The Benefit of Nested Tags 12/23/2020

I got a Notejoy account two years ago, although I do not use the app. It's quite attractive though, and I suppose I should revisit it. Today I received an email from them linking to their Year 3 overv...

Yet another new discovery 12/23/2020

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...

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, ...
