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

SmallDog, my mistake - you’re right, Obsidian is available for some other platforms. I would like to use it on my Chromebook and Android tablet, but Obsidian isn’t there yet. So the Windows laptop will have to do for a while.

Have you used Obsidian or RoamResearch?

For me this is wrong thinking. With the price you pay the past developments. Because exactly as you say, i pay for software based on their current features not on what i expect in the future.

Daly, I have checked out both, and tried using Roam for several weeks. Eventually, though, I went back to my old arrangement (Scapple + GoogleDoc + TB). The reason is mostly personal: I just find plain text too constraining.

And while the linking abilities are nice, neither has the equivalent of TB’s jump thought, i.e. a simple UNDIRECTED connection between two nodes, which is what the vast majority of my TB connections are (I have banned myself from utilizing parent/child connections in most cases as doing so inevitably leads to decision paralysis).
