I’ve been enjoying reading the posts here, for the last few weeks. I’ve learned about a lot of software that I had never heard about before.
I’m pretty sure that I have been aware of this site, in years past, but never had time to do a deep dive like I have recently. I’m impressed by the range of things discussed, and the depth of insight that I’ve seen from posters here.
I’d be interested to learn about other resources that might be available, to learn more about the range of topics, covered here.
I’m trying to capture information about the kind of tools and projects mentioned here. Google does a pretty good job of locating things based on just a name reference, but I keep thinking that there should be a web site or Wiki which would have more structured info, in one place. I’m pretty sure there are many more resources “out there”, but I don’t know of a good way to easily discover them. Does anyone know of any other guides or “Awesome Lists” that would complement the messages posted here?
I’m particularly interested in free, Open Source projects. I’ve learned of several, from messages posted here. Does anyone have pointers to others?
Thanks.

This has many different threads , not strictly outliners or IM’s.

Welcome, David. Yes, this is a fun place to hang out. Right now, when it comes to some kind of comprehensive list of outliners, I’d go here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outliner
But it doesn’t cover the many wikis, notetaking tools, or mindmaps. Although mindmapping program lists can be found at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_concept-_and_mind-mapping_software
Wiki comparisons: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_wiki_software
