From a brief search it seems to me that this has not been posted here before and may be of interest:

It is a task manager combining task columns ala Trello, Kanban boards, cal...

That should have been:
Fascinating; could you elaborate further on this appoach? Are you referring to structuring a paper and referencing existing material, or more?

I'm probably similarly revealing much about myself, but I would argue that there is a difference in the 'disciplines' required to
- wake up early and go jogging, and
- focus one's mind on a specific ...

As recommended earlier, I suggest you take a look at some material on the Kanban Method, such as:

NoteFrog is now free
8/7/2021
Thanks for the heads up on this. Notefrog provides a simple functionality that I used a lot in my Psion days: taking notes that are then listed by their first words. No need for titles or tagging, tho...

I believe Zenkit Base https://zenkit.com/en/base/ should cover the basic requirements below.

DoogiePIM v3 for Windows is out
8/4/2021
Thanks for pointing me to that post! The developer's more recent update in the comments seems to clarify the context further.
I like this approach. It is privacy-friendly, independent from third-par...
DoogiePIM v3 for Windows is out
8/3/2021
Thanks for the heads up. I have one question whose answer I wasn't able to find on the website, at least from a quick perusal: is it possible to keep DoogiePIM's database files in a Dropbox (or simila...
Hierarchies or Networks?
7/19/2021
I, for one, can make much more sense of things through hierarchies than 'flat' networks, but I understand that reality very often can't be classified in hierarchical boxes. See D. Weinberger's "Everyt...
Artisanal software sale

They should offer one free app for every 4 one purchases ;)

This may be of interest. I think that it hasn't been mentioned here before:

Going with what you know

Do you mean that
(a) iCloud is very convenient, or
(b) the fact that they don't rely on iCloud is very convenient?
I've never used iCloud, so I've no idea of its convenience (or not)
Thanks!

Artisanal software sale

What follows can be considered a brief ode to artisanal software, so in topic :)
I think I bought Easy Data Transform briefly after it came out. I used it for one particular thing which would have ta...
Web Clipper

If I don't want a replica (in which case I would also use Fireshot) but just the contents correctly formatted, I use Evernote. It has web clipper extensions for most browsers.
Interestingly, at least...

Hi,
If I understand correctly, what you want to develop is a model of your company, including quantitative data flows between people / teams / departments.
I see several different routes of varying ...

RIP!
Thanks for this info. I have some of his books, Six Thinking Hats being my favourite. It's a method primarily aimed at groups but I find it can be very useful for single thinkers as well.

I like WriteMapper overall. Aside from brainstorming a document from scratch, it seems to work well for importing a document and enriching/reorganising it. The minimal writing environment is nice, I l...

Just to clarify, in Brainstorm one can have 6 marks (M, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) and for each there are simple keyboard shortcuts to 'Throw' the source item or a clone of it. So one can have up to 6 'buckets' a...
Aside the tagging interface, is there in practice a difference with hierarchical / nested tags?
