Notebooks for Mac 2 beta available
2/25/2019
Hm, I'm surprised - I'm using beta 3 of MJ and haven't had any problems up till now. But yes, I'm very much hoping the iOS app gets an update in the near future. DayOne has always been very slick, des...

Yes, this is a big failing in a wide variety of otherwise perfectly competent apps. It's one of the very strong points of both MacJournal and Notebooks – both of them immediately highlight ...
On the whole, I'd agree with you - except that a lot of apps add their own share extensions to Safari, representing a kind of underground garden of extensions. I have, for example, buttons for Bear, D...

Yes, I know what you mean - both gave the impression of being slightly old-fashioned, especially as other neat apps came out.
Well, the Notebooks 2 beta certainly looks more Mac-like - and above all,...

Dang, it's an exciting two-horse race between Notebooks 2 and the latest version of MacJournal (beta 2 of 7.0, released this month). They're both very attractive, very powerful, and quite similar.

Ah, no, I withdraw my "rats"! - I see that none of the free options listed cover Safari. But they're very useful for users of Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Edge.
Ah, okay. Rats, knew I should have had a net-sniff first...
Thanks, satis!
Cheers,

On a related but not really all-that-similar topic, I can recommend (for Mac users only, I'm afraid) Tabs to Links, a tiny utility that compiles a list of all the links in your multiple Safari tabs an...

That's a better description. Notebooks includes Markdown, along with many other super-flexible features, precisely because it aims to be as adaptable to users' needs as possible.
Personally, I like t...
White board software

Not forgetting the cheap-and-cheerful macOS and iOS option, Numbers ;-)
(Actually, I'm not sure if it's an infinite whiteboard, but it's enormous, and you can import most things. It also has its own ...
Dang, Jake, as a matter of fact I *didn't* know that - whoopee! I shall go and play...
Many thanks!

How much data do you store.
2/14/2019
This is a very interesting question.
I am more and more wary of putting vast amounts of documentary data into any single database. That's why I use Curiota for general information gathering.
My Cur...
Darn, having just decided to give up Ulysses, I've received the promo e-mail describing the new features in Ulysses 15 (really!?!). They all sound rather enticing. On the other hand, Scrivener already...
Hence the concept of game theory. Something I find more and more fascinating the older I get...
I found this very amusing, since I'm engaged in much the same process. I've been evaluating all the lovely apps I use for stuff, and have concluded that the ones I really need are limited to:
- Numbe...
Ha! Nice distinction there, @nathanb! I love the idea of soft and hard listers. I also love Paul's idea of "future as gestalt"...
InfoRapid - revisited
2/6/2019
The $99 version is the Pro multi-user version (so between the individual desktop and server versions), allowing multiple people to use the same database.
It's a really interesting program. I acquired...
Ha, fascinating insights, Graham. I am currently adjusting my own way of working in very similar ways.
After much thought and some experimentation, I'm dumping all the subscription-based apps I was u...
About Ninox Database
2/1/2019
As you say, Skywatcher, very much a small-business setup - but also very common.
Sadly, Apple's rather erratic implementation of Apple Server lost a lot of credibility after they scrapped Xserves, an...

Sorry, folks, I realise my hijacking of the Todoist kanban thread with news of Ninox's latest Kanban support wasn't desperately helpful!

Todoist to offer Kanban boards (again)
1/30/2019
More info on Ninox's kanban views (and card and GANTT views) here:

The kanban view looks pretty cool - as do the GANTT and cards views. You can see how they all...

Interestingly, FileMaker competitor Ninox (a German app) has just added multiple possible views to its already impressive panoply of features, including GANTT and Kanban views.
