I'd be curious to learn if this results in your using moo.do as your main task manager? I love the idea, but I've tried it a few times and found it too finicky for my tastes.

The author of MemoFlowy and HandFlowy continues to capitalize on the failure of outliner software developers to make decent native iOS apps with a version of those apps for Dynalist:

Yes, I really appreciate the work that goes into maintaining a website like this. Thanks Chris!

This app seems rather limited so I deleted it already from my phone. Still, seems worth mentioning here because of how it combines notes and lists and...
2 More Open Source Free Kanban Boards

I don't know if it was mentioned earlier, but airtable's browser version has a nice kanban interface. Right now it still doesn't work on the phone, but I think they might be working on it...
Winterfest sale - Panorama X
12/25/2017
I'd tried Airtable a while ago but never really got it; however, there are many situations where I've used other tools (Trello, Dynalist, Google Sheets, etc.) as a database and after seeing the name c...
Diigo
12/18/2017
Diigo does much more than annotation. It serves as read-later service, an outliner, a collaborative research platform and more. Not sure if it is for me, but certainly worth a look if you tried it out...
Diigo

I recently checked out Diigo after a long time. They seem to be continually updating the app. It has many of the features of something like Pocket or Instapaper but also some other stuff, like an outl...

Current state of iOS/macOS outliners
11/6/2017
Another way of defining my personal "idiosyncratic standards" for an outliner might be to say that I want a Workflowy-inspired outliner that works across platforms.It still seems to me that only the f...
Current state of iOS/macOS outliners
11/5/2017
Personally (by my admittedly idiosyncratic standards) there are only four outliner apps for iOS/macOS that I think are worth mentioning: Workflowy, Dynalist, Outlinely, and Mubu. As the state of these...
Notion
10/4/2017
So it does have folding - sort of. You get folding by adding a "toggle list block" which can hold other kinds of blocks within it and can all be folded. I find this way of doing things very strange - ...

I see this was mentioned back last summer when it was in beta.

Notion
10/4/2017
While intriguing, I find I don't really like Notion. What it gains in flexibility with all these "blocks" it looses in its lack of structure. Similar to why I don't like MS OneNote I guess. One exampl...
Notion
10/4/2017
Anyone tried Notion? An interesting new(?) app that does docs, wikis, to-do lists, etc. I find the iOS app very difficult to use and the instructions are all based on using a keyboard, but the whole i...
Alfred is highly scriptable and can interact with other apps. You do need to pay extra to turn on the workflow functionality, but it’s worth it.

One result of apps going towards subscription models is that whereas before I would have kept them on my desktop and used them occasionally, now I just delete them, because they are generally useless ...
I too found the Ulysses app post with its comparison to the price of coffee quite offensive. However, I found this Medium post by one of the developers to be much more thoughtful:

NVIVO vs Devonthink

Outlinely can search for tags across documents using the "search and navigate window." Dynalist can search in a single document or across documents. Workflowy does not require you to separate outlines...
