Any Windows users here ?
9/8/2017
Oh and I've also been using iCloud notes a lot lately. The security is great and iphone access is superb. Browser interface is so-so. I would use StandardNotes if I could trust the security more (if i...

A Windows v Mac thread - I love it! Feels like 1995 :)
I have 3 Windows laptops. One owned by my employer, the other 2 by me. Every time I consider getting a Mac I just can't believe the ridiculous ...
Dropbox Paper
2/11/2017
Underwhelmed is my impression too. I've really wanted to like Dropbox Paper and have tried it out a bunch of times. I do like the iOS app and I like the idea that my $100/yr for dropbox could be lev...

Sorry - it looks like this is the link to the "community" page where you can then click "see full specs" to view all 50:

I just came across this:

Update on this - I got my beta invite a month or so ago and have used it for a couple of writing projects. I like the concept:
- left pane toggles between outline and full text
- right pane holds sn...
thinkery

Looking at thinkery again. https://thinkery.me/
It now appears to be a full-featured Evernote clone. ios, android and web apps. And it imports Evernote .enex archives! I haven't tried it because I...
Standard Notes

FYI, ios app is not really available yet - if you are an ios developer you can run it from GitHub apparently, but it's not in the app store. They say sometime in Jan 2017.
Standard Notes
12/29/2016
Thanks for finding this one! Since you posted I've tried on web and PC. I like it quite a bit. I am a huge fan of local encryption and this app has a few things the other zero-knowledge notes apps l...
Evernote Privacy Policy Changes
12/20/2016
Wow - my main takeaway from this thread is that I really need to get myself a Mac and lock myself in a room for a couple of weeks for some serious crimping :)

Tagspaces
12/9/2016
I downloaded and tried tagspaces.
The interface is pretty great. You could use this as your main file browser with a built-in editor for many file types. The basic version only searches filenames, ...

Jaslar, can I ask what you like about Dynalist over Workflowy?
PDF cataloging
8/20/2016
I think qiqqa does what you want. I used it on a project for a while. You can add an annotation to either a document or to a specific location in a document. Then you can search those annotations. ...
One nice thing about cloud services that sync to a folder on local devices (e.g. Dropbox, Evernote, Tresorit) is that if the service suddenly disappears you always have the local copy. This is a remi...
