Looks like they released a buggy version and had to pull it from the App Store

Would something like a self-hosted instance of WordPress (or similar CMS) be useful?

Do you mean "Joplin"?

The correlation between affordable housing and technology choices is an interesting observation.

This is my sense, too. I use a few iOS/MacOS apps such as ZoomNotes and MarginNote, whose Mac version has close to 100% of the features as the iOS versions. But I prefer working with them on iOS b...
RFC - New Software Project: Infosqueezer
9/13/2019
Good to see there will be documentation. I think only a vanishingly small number of people know or care to know what an XML transform is, let alone how to write one. So if you let others have the ...

Good advice. I've done the same. Decided to refill my penny jar for some useful software.

I emptied the penny jar and bought it, used it for 24 hours or so. I think I'll just write off the cost to excess enthusiasm. I won't delete the app, but I won't be keen to experiment more. I see n...
DEVONthink 3 officially released
9/12/2019
After a very long private beta period, and a long public beta, DEVONthink 3 has been officially released.

Got it. Looks pretty much the same as the old version. A lot has happened in macOS since the last version (e.g., share extensions, menubar extras) but the new version doesn't seem to take advantage ...

Yes, I agree. In fact, GoodNotes abandoned it’s earlier approach to creating a new Mac version (v5) the old way, and adopted the Catalyst approach. There is now a beta available on Catalina ...

Great news. (Though, it's looked like the release is around the corner for a few years now LOL).
I'm interested in getting the updated app, just for the fun of it and old times sake ... but am wonde...
"outliner mode" file manager
9/10/2019
Maybe I'm too used to Windows Explorer, quirks and all, but I find the OneCommander window to be strangely difficult to navigate and figure out.
Back to Workflowy from Dynalist
9/7/2019
I use Dynalist mainly on Mac and Windows 10, and find I've been using it more. The web version in Edge on Windows 10 is great for me at work, where I do not have a Mac -- I can drag emails from Outl...
Ulysses version 18 in beta

You misread my point.
Ulysses version 18 in beta

Ulysses 18 sounds interesting for people who do not want to be locked into iCloud, but there's another side to the story that that blog posting doesn't address. "Markdown XL" and the other features m...
Several centuries ago, when I was in grad school, it was the rage to use decks of Hollerith cards for note taking. One would manually punch the cards (not using the standard mechanical punching mach...
Without going into the "how-to" details, that site suggests that a disciplined approach to creating, storing, and distributing snippets of "information" in a corporate environment is a good thing. (...
Cornell method over here, too. In GoodNotes and other software I used my own custom Cornell-Note templates by default, for each note page.

Note talking is a very common topic in this forum, isn't it, and a very common reason to use outliners?

MS Teams & Planner

Possibly worth noting that Teams is replacing Skype for Business (online) in approximately two years.

An organization I support is in the beginning stages of deploying Teams (and Planner). Planner is team-oriented. The members of a team in Teams can use planner. It's not used as a personal planni...
Notion.io is my new favorite

That is a really nasty policy. Goodbye Notion.
I favor Dynalist's policy. Under "Data Ownership":
"You own the data you put into Dynalist. By putting your information into Dynalist, you do not gr...

Thanks. Worth trialing the beta. If they get to adding the "import your Kindle highlights" feature, that would be very useful.
