What notes software have you found it FUN to use?

Curio is an unrecognized wonder. I tend to use it for brainstorming and outlining, not note taking, except in one important area - math.

I’m math stupid, always have been, and I’m trying to heal myself. Nothing does math notes like Curio. I can insert equations with Mathjax and add sidebar text boxes (figures, in Curio-speak). Screen shots from Geogebra fill in the geometry. When I retire at age 135 or so, I intend to enroll in college math courses. I’ll be that annoying old Elmer Fudd on the front row who aces every assignment. Curio will be my secret weapon.

As an outliner or mind mapper, Curio appears at first glance to lack notes attachments. However, everything in Curio can have an attached note, outline entries and mindmap nodes included. Activate the notes inspector and away you go. The notes are in a floating pane, not inline. I find that is a small concession.
