Apps for Retirement
Today
Heh, yes, I've actually been looking at a brand-new Craft installation (having over-filled my own with too much stuff, much of it unsorted and rather inelegant, all collected since the earliest days o...

Can't argue with that. It is quite a nice sharing platform (although my wife found it so annoying she flatly refused to use it). And it does look lovely :-)

You are amazing, Mark! I've never seen anything quite like it – MojoPad comes across as an astonishingly mature app, despite the dizzying rate of development.
I shall have to invest (not least beca...
Apps for Retirement

Increasingly, I'm looking for apps that work across all platforms, not just Mac and Windows (reading a lot of Cory Doctorow at the moment, and boy, the manipulations of Big Tech are just so depressing...
Yes, that impressed me too!
Cheers,

I've tried to love Craft, but after many years of fiddling with it and never finding a "best way" to integrate it with my own ways of working, I've finally abandoned it. But I can see why it appeals t...
First things first: it's a very beautiful app, really very good looking (nice website, too).
A few observations:
- even after messing about for a bit, I couldn't work out how to include items from...
Dang, sounds interesting! I shall have to check it out...
Obsidian as writing tool

Thought I'd just put in a quick note about an Obsidian plugin I've just discovered: Canvas2Document. Basically, it generates a complete document from all or selected cards/notes on an Obsidian canvas ...
Coppice is back!

Interesting. I've been playing with Coppice (not for long, admittedly), and so far it's been rather good. There are things still missing and a couple of clunkers, but also some very nice, elegant touc...
Coppice is back!

A wonderful Mac app known as Coppice, originally developed by Martin Pilkington who then, alas, died, has been updated and brought back to the Mac App Store by a friend of his, Stephen Troughton-Smith...

Well, if there's two things that would be wonderful:
a) folding (under headers, perhaps)
b) the ability, currently exclusive to Ulysses (and the alas defunct Novellus), to view multiple documents/no...

It's unbelievably powerful, Mark – I've been sitting there admiring the gorgeous graph and the various views it supports (as well as the fact that you can view pages alongside the graph). Wow.

I can confirm that I run Ollama in local-only mode (you can completely deactivate its web access), generally running Qwen3 as my local model (pretty good, on the whole). I've been running it with note...

And now the embedding is consistent! Great stuff.

Ah, weird. It's just embedded, after I converted the page to markdown and then back to rich text... not quite sure how I did that. I'll see if it's reproducible...

Hm, no, just downloaded 1.5.1, and I'm not seeing an embed. Maybe because of folders?

Quiver redux

It's great to see it back – I've just reopened a Quiver library I haven't checked out since 2015!!!

Hot dang, Mark, this is really very impressive. It's much more functional and friendly than VoodooPad, while retaining the best aspects of the latter (although I think you'll probably need to put "Col...

And Vivaldi. And Edge. And Opera. Cool!

Dang, I love the combined graph/note view, too – it's more coherent than Obsidian's!

Love version 1.30, incidentally – and am seriously impressed by the different themes. Very nice!

It does make you despair of human nature, doesn't it? How weird – you're effectively offering a revitalised VoodooPad to people who love(d) VoodooPad, and some t*t decides this isn't acceptable, so yo...

I'm particularly impressed by the static website publishing function – very nice. A search feature would be a very desirable addition, but I appreciate one can't have everything...
