Well, if you say you can use read-only, there is an option to export as a web site. Easily readable in a browser. Attachments are part of the export.

And don’t forget InfoQube IM has 2-way sync with Google Calendar / Tasks and with Evernote. So Events, Tasks and Reminders will show up (and notify you) on your devices. Daily Notes enthusiasts (e.g. Roam, Tana, Obsidian, etc) have full mobile access to their content on the go ߑͰߙ

MyInfo 8 was released on schedule on 30 March, has some useful new features, and continues the long line of development.
I’ve tried many alternatives over the years but always seem to come back to MyInfo.
Kind regards,

I don’t know anything about MI 8; neither of 7, but then:

I know about (early installments of) MI 6, and within just some minutes, and with just some attributes, and some items, I systematically “succeeded” in CRASHING that (v.5, and early v.6) crap; that being said, the developer has, in-between (i.e. between 6 and 7), changed the back-upping db, from somewhat-I’-dont-know, to SQLite, I suppose. Thus:
Your, “I’ve tried many alternatives over the years but always seem to come back to MyInfo.”, is NOT to be taken seriously, since, some years ago, MI had NOT (already?) been reliable - proof on file if ever the need.

I am a daily, heavy, user of MyInfo for my business primarily.
It works. It is flexible. It is supported.
I do not need a web app, and I hope MyInfo does not bother with one. It will suck time away from the core development that is MyInfo.
If you do “need” a web app PIM, then MyInfo is not for you.”
You are right, except for the fact that you don’t post anything new here, since I here said, years ago, that even for a mere 1,000, 1,200 bucks, you were “now” able to buy a i7 Windows notebook weighting just about 1,000, , 1,200 grams, and whatever “mobility” beyond that would you strive at, lest giving away allegedly all your data to google-n-similar? As for your MI’s business use: that had even been possible with Mi’s previous versions (i.e. 5, and then early 6…) IF you refrained from using its “attributes” - if then, I prefer Ultra Recall, that’s just me indeed…

I’ve looked into Myinfo many times, and I’m sure i would be happy using it in my pc. But in 2023, an app like this without a mobile counterpart, even it is read only, is a no go.
The one who have been using it for a long time, my be used to it. But start afresh knowing this limitation, is hard to justify.”
Just be happy with your alleged subscriptions, with or without giving away all your data - for what’s worth then: what’s your respective data worth? well… - and leave serious PIM users alone.

Fact is, in previous versions (i.e. v. 5 and early v. 6, again that is), and in theor, MI’s attribute M had been MUCH better than, e.g., UR’s attribute M: no doubt about that, insofar, but then, as said, if, in those, previous, MI versions, you really tried to take some benefit of “attributes”: oh my: WHO then wants an ever-crashing tool, after Microsoft Windows 2000, right?
V
And this is probably the foremost info anybody maintaining their “stuff” into some current “outliner” / “PIM” could ever get: The web abounds of remarks that Ultra Recall be NOT the
=====ideal “note taking” app=====
, AND those people then say, “it’s not really responsive” - without anybody of those jerks ever relating the facts… and yes, in-between UR’s commands for “create new sib” or “create new sub”, and then, your being able to then type the new item’s title, there’s a delay, of between 1 and almost even 2 seconds - I don’t know, not having the technical means at hand to measure the delay - on my professional HDD, whilst your delay might be somewhat lesser indeed if you allow UR to write onto your SDD that is; whatever:
Fact is, “factory” (sic!) UR, and even on this April 5, 2023, is NOT the ideal “note taking app”, since there is a delay between your wanting to JOT DOWN your thought, and then, the end of the waiting time that “factory” applic imposes onto you, in order to JOT DOWN your thought, but then, I don’t know about “competiting” applics… whatever:
With just TWO lines of additional, external, “scripting” code, that delay between your thinking, and then your JOTTING DOWN your “thoughts”, is reduced to ZERO…
but then, please excuse me for NOT sharing those mere two lines of external code, since, put it simply, I simply don’t think the quality of today’s co-“contributors” of this forum need immediate, or then ever, JOTTING DOWN, and indeed, almost all of you, alleged “contributors”, here should probably THINK TWICE before uttering their irrelevant (i.e. devoid of any information) blalabla:
Thus, in most real life’s so-called “use cases”, that “factory UR”‘s (sib, or sub) item delay creation’s waiting time should be regarded as even utterly beneficial to most people utterances over here…
whilst, indeed, just 2 lines of external code with do away with that delay, an’then, Ultra Recall will also be
THE PERFECT NOTE-TAKING APP,
whilst not for people who just do in low-brow, or’then, in as-low-brow, invective.

I couldn’t care less if my simple statement of fact is taken seriously or not. I’ve never had MyInfo crash but then I’ve only been using it for a dozen years.
On the other hand, I still use Blackwell’s “Idealist” (version 3, 1995) on a daily basis and, in 28 years it has never crashed nor lost data and has run happily under every version of Windows up to and including 11.
