That makes sense – and actually accounts for most of the footprint.

Well, I've spent an hour or so checking out Final|FINAL, and I must say that's a very impressive achievement! You've created something that's as functional as much more mature products in a remarkably...

Most entertaining – after recent discussions of other "final" apps, you may finally have nailed it!
Forum redesign

Now now! No less a person than Professor Dawkins has suggested that AI may indeed be conscious (after lengthy interaction with his agent "Claudia"...). So it *must* be true...

Trouble is, when one's exchanging news and views in writing, it's not always easy to read (what passes for) humour into people's remarks, and in my experience quite a lot of the criticism on our forum...

I have to say, this is why I actually use a completely separate tool (the super-search engine FoxTrot Professional) to scour through my now vast archive of reference materials (including every kind of...

An attractive concept, but a very personal one. Frankly, all the messing about with frontmatter attributes, tagging etc. to produce databases, meta-glossaries etc. is a bit OTT (in fact, my appalled d...

You are not wrong, but yes, bulk importing from e.g. proprietary formats is (very) hard. Which is why so many of the best notetaking apps use folders + markdown files as their basic content – because ...

Or maybe they could be sorted (if so desired) by Newest First? But hey, it's brilliant anyway!

What do you value in Ia writer and Ulysses

That's a point – I'd forgotten that Notebooks can concatenate. Thanks for reminding me!
(Yet another) interesting new app!

It's quite a while since I wrote about Notenik, and during that time, it's progressed from strength to strength. But I don't use it very often, except out of curiosity.
However! My attention was re...
The only app I can think of that more or less directly mirrors OneNote on Linux is BasketNotes (https://basket-notepads.github.io), but I don't think it imports OneNote files.

Alfons Schmid's Notebooks

Agreed: Alfons is lovely, but how he makes a living out of Notebooks I don't know, because he rarely charges for upgrades. I did use it quite a lot, but since going multi-platform have used it less an...

All-In-One solution?

OneNote is a good example of Cory Doctorow's "enshittification" principle (now defined in Wikipedia, no less: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittification)
But I remain astonished at the many per...
What do you value in Ia writer and Ulysses

Absolutely. I remain on the lookout for promising writing apps that can do this, or do what Scrivener and Ulysses do (concatenate multiple notes/documents in a single view). Sadly, the only really sim...

Interesting to see how many notetakers are going down this route. Octarine is evolving in a similar direction, and of course it's built into Obsidian. Although Brainio's mindmapping is somewhat closer...

Dang, the people behind Brainio have just released a brand-new, all-rewritten version – currently free of charge! It does look extremely attractive (nice mixture of text, mindmapping and hybrid). More...

Having tested Claude extensively, I would be Very Wary of giving it access to my data. But the idea does look pretty cool.

... unless one was just CRIMPing, of course, in which case experimenting is half the fun!
Depends on your platform(s): a couple of clues suggest you're working in Windows, but perhaps you could clarify?

All-In-One solution?

No, that's true – UpNote isn't date-aware at all. You can use TickTick as your all-in-one, of course – I share TickTick in a small office environment, and we have quite a lot of useful notes in there ...

Love the look of this, but (a) it's online-only at the moment? And (b) the subscription price is perhaps a wee bit ambitious for a brand-new solution?
But a really nice idea!
