What Hacker News says
3 sourcesI used to use AppViz 1 and 2 by Ideaswarm until I switched harddrives and forgot to back up that one particular program in 2020. Its gone forever now. There are no downloads anywhere and there is no alternative offline programs that work the same.
On the windows it is Keynote renamed Ketnote NF. It doesn't work on the mac very well under wine, nor on linux. There is nothing in the world as useful as an outliner with tabs.
