Most of the reports I've seen on Upnote suggest that it imports notes enex successfully . I don't really want my ancient Evernotes on Upnote, so I haven't tested it myself. But would fit a pattern of ...

Mmm. I thought I'd try deleting notes and notebooks. Neither could be deleted. I was able to empty the trash of notes that were already there, but that was it. I did find some notes that I could delet...

I ran the Obsidian importer and a OneNote importer. The Obsidian importer has produced very few useful notes and cartloads of garbage in resources folders. The OneNote importer seems to have done a go...

Thanks for the reminder that I ought to re-export all my (very) old notes.

Mellel 6 released (Mac only) 12/15/2023

I don't think markdown editors have had much to do with the collapse of the market for word processors. Some of it is the move to the web and digital and that most people - and even businesses - have ...

WriteMapper 4 is out for Mac and Windows 12/14/2023

There's no longer a need for all the old Scrivener features; I'm not sure what % of Scrivener users ever use the compiler. And, L&L certainly seem keen to update their codebase.. But there's nothing o...

I've looked at it a bit more and think I've underestimated it. For anyone who has straightforward/simple mindmap/outline/editor needs, Writemapper is a pretty neat was of switching from one mode to an...

WriteMapper 4 is out for Mac and Windows 12/12/2023

One of the relatively few writing apps I hadn't tried. Won't give it a good kicking, but might nudge it a bit. Looks to be a PWA prog, primarily a markdown notes editor with outline and mindmap attac...

A critique of tagging 11/7/2023

There's assumptions about what tags are, but a metadata tag attached to a note (or block) is a quite different beast to a inline #tag. And folders aren't the only alternative. A variety of Obsidian us...

Mindomo can do all that. But whether it's worth becoming fluent in using it just for that one feature I'm not sure
