What do you mean by "bump"?

Dynalist Pro 50% off promotion

I agree. Dynalist and OmniOutliner are both outliners, but there are significant differences in their feature sets. Also, Dynalist appears to be under more active development than OO.

Going to Attempt All-in with Dynalist

Thanks Christoph.
I am aware that Obsidian developers also created Dynalist.
I have spent many hours learning how others use Obsidian - and I like what I see.
Clearly, Obsidian is not a traditio...

Have you looked at Obsidian at all? I wonder how you would compare it to Roam. Thanks.

MyInfo 7 now available

Bill, thanks very much for your review of MyInfo - I am looking forward to using it again.
My only hesitation is that I am attracted to Obsidian, which I want to use for academic note-taking, and as ...

Bill, I have just looked over the MI7 website, and haven't seen a mention of columns. Am I correct to assume that MI still supports columns?
All in all, just looking at the website, it seems there ha...

In my quote from 2015, it should read Taking Note, not Take Note. I apologize for my carelessness.

Stephen,
I am sorry to learn that Manfred's wife has Alzheimer's. Understandably, his hands are full, especially at this time of pandemic. I will keep Manfred and his wife in my thoughts and prayers...
Roam Patrol!

I am in the same situation. I have decided not to use Roam because of cost and the fact that my data is not locally stored. Nonetheless, I have watched a number of videos on YouTube, and find that Obs...
Hi Tiggerlou, since you are liking Dynalist, I wonder if you can use it for your recipes, although I recognize that it's likely a horrendous job - at least in terms of time.
I can't imagine why Evern...

Best wishes to you. I am sorry to see you go. Even if you're not able to follow the forum as you might like, or as many of us did back in the day when things were new and time didn't seem so limited, ...

Christoph, for me part of the charm is that this interface has become comfortable over the years. While other software might be more sophisticated, it might not be more user-friendly. Chris' software ...

I am with those who favour the familiar and the simple. I enjoy the simplicity of this forum as you do, Tightbeam, and I agree with Dr Andus. As you say, why fix what isn't broken.

I hope you are right. I know the plan is to make it available eventually. It'd be nice if eventually is already here!

(The)BrainDead? (Hopefully not yet)

Reading this thread a question which arises for me is whether the likes of Obsidian and RoamResearch in fact make TheBrain less relevant. Both allow linking and back linking (Obsidian recently introdu...
Roam Patrol!

This discussion brings to mind a program Apple shipped with the early Macintosh (I believe, in 1987) called HyperCard. I haven't heard much about Hypercard for many years, but I have thought about it ...
I would be interested in your thoughts about Citavi. Thanks.

Dynalist goes awry?
11/12/2019
I welcome these Dynalist changes, as it appears one will have a choice as to whether to use markdown or WYSIWYG. Too often those of us who have no need for markdown are left behind. Choice is always g...

Although only available in the Windows world, Citavi is probably the best ref manager, pdf reader, and knowledge manager on the market. Its ability to manage knowledge is unique, and could mimic effec...
DoogiePIM

I see that BitsDuJour has doogiePIM (once known as DoOrganizer) on offer. I was surprised, having thought it was no longer developed after the demise of GemX (also the developer of TexNotes outliner b...
