Yes, for me, and I think also for others.

>Curio by Zengobi the one of which you speak?
I'm afraid my toys would be saddened if I picked just one as the fun one. So there's three that I play with even when I have nothing important to do: Curio, Obsidian and TheBrain.
Curio, because ...
Yesterday I asked Bard for a photo of upper 5th Avenue (NY) as it was in 1920. It replied "Here's a photo of upper 5th Avenue in 1920". It was a photo of Pasadena from this summer.

TheBrain has release the first beta (better to call it "pre-alpha" IMO) of TheBrain 14.

It's very very buggy. The company has gone all-in on the O...
Useful outliner search/query examples
9/20/2023
Features I find very useful
* Regular expression searching
* Type-to-replace highlighted search results (useful in conjunction with regex-based search)
* Search and replace across multiple documents
Escape's developers did a good job of making their app look like MindNode.
My enjoyment of Tana is increasing as its feature set expands and matures. Looks like there will be a broader public release later this year. Although, it's easy to get access to Tana now -- just ...

There was (and still is) an app called NoteTaker that was contemporaneous with Circus Ponies. I'm not sure which came first, but NoteTaker 4 is still around on macOS.

I own more software than a sane person ought, and over the last 40 years I recall only one case where software stopped working because the developer went out of business -- Circus Ponies Notebook. Th...

Well, dancing has symmetry with outlining. Placing feet and body in the right order. Hoisting. Indention moves.
I can see the rationale.

Did Remnote Just Leapfrog Tana?
8/1/2023
Probably because I haven't used it enough, RemNote's structure built around the card metaphor feels really fiddly. Did the app start out as a spaced repetition tool that got a lot of other features ...
The Properties feature introduced in Obsidian 1.4.x provides a panel, similar to Notion and other apps, that serves as an overlay for the YAML front matter in a document, and also enforces data type. ...
Hi @Dellu -- there's nothing at the WordPress link you posted :-(
I like Highlights quite a bit, and have used it from it's first release. Jonas Ribe has incrementally built it into a very good anno...
Bear 2 - Reactions?
7/18/2023
I suppose this is worth worrying about. A little bit. Maybe more. But on the other hand, I don't recall ever seeing the internet all outraged because someone dug through iCloud or AWS or elsewhere ...
Bear 2 - Reactions?
7/16/2023
I haven't seen a head-to-head comparison, but it seems that Apple Notes under iOS/macOS 17 will be pretty much on par with Bear 2.
I love Bear. It is a beautiful app. But development is the most ...
Interesting analysis. I'm not sure how it plays out in reality -- at least in my experience. (I am always grateful that I only have my own experience to deal with.) Of the top five apps that I us...
I'm always curious why the appearance of software is enough to almost instantly repel, before probing the depths to see the possible fitness of that software to serve one's needs.

Busy bee. You've tried them all, but maybe take a look at Taskheat -- not 100% of your requirements, but maybe 80%? 60%?

Airlist - a new Apple-ecosystem outliner

Interesting, thank's Steve. Probably a good app to wait until Setapp includes it in their subscription.

Chris, you have carried the water for all of us for many years. Time for us to have a way contribute to the burden.
