• Ensō: write now, edit later

  Reminds me of the (dead) RoughDraft mac app by 43 Folders(?). There is also FocusWriter - opensource and multi-platform. https://gottcode.org/focuswriter/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Is there an app to keep track of all the details when writing a story?

  Also, if you're kinda of an indie author, try Bibisco or Focuswriter. Source: 11 months ago

• is there a computer that can only run word a processor

  If you have a spare laptop, I recommend just disabling the Internet altogether. But before then, install a program called FocusWriter - it goes full screen. Or instead of the spare computer idea, maybe create a new user account on your computer maybe called Writing, install FocusWriter and have it launch on startup, and disable that account's Internet.

• Ask HN: What products other than Obsidian share the file over app philosophy?

  NotePlan (https://noteplan.co) stores everything in Markdown files with a directory structure mirroring that created in the UI. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Why I Like Obsidian

  I tried obsidian but felt it had too many gears and knobs and spent too many times fiddling with them. I fell back on this app which is based on local markdown storage but takes it up a notch. https://noteplan.co The fact that everything is in plain text files on my computer is very important for me and future proofed. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

  Maybe NotePlan [0] can sync with iCloud? [0] https://noteplan.co/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: What do you use for note-taking or as knowledge base?

  Noteplan [1] has stuck for at least 3 years now. I like that in addition to old-school notes pages, each day has its own page. I capture notes and to-dos when I'm in meetings, and it has a separate view that will aggregate all your to-dos onto the same screen, no matter what day they appeared on. That might be available in many note-taking apps now, but when I converted to Noteplan, I couldn't find that feature... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: How Do You Manage and Schedule Everything in Your Life?

  I use https://noteplan.co/ It is a planner/note-taking app that connects to your calendar and you can drag and drop "tasks" onto certain days, create notes that link to certain meetings, and time-block your days well in advance. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
