Hi, if you have not tried it yet, I have recently updated OutlineEdit 3 with a couple of nice improvements and a great new onboarding experience for new users: https://outlineedit.com

Really looking forward to your feedback on the state of the app!

Best,
Robin

Hi everyone,

while I have long supported OPML export/import in OutlineEdit and enjoy it in many apps, I have some times been uncertain about which data fields should be included and how to name those attributes for the widest compatibility. I would be interested in learning the following from passionate OPML users:

  • Which software is your main client for generating/opening OPML files and does it include any special data fields? And which of them do you need?
  • What do you think about the approach of adding non-standard fields with a leading underscore (e.g. _note)?
  • Is there friction that you encounter in practice when using (partially) incompatible OPML files with some apps?

Really interested in that, looking forward to your experiences with this topic.

Robin
