Switched apps? From what to what?

I’ll give two from this week. Don’t look at my post history, this isn’t the first time.

Both Evernote and Todoist raised their subscriptions recently. Evernote by A LOT across the board and Todoist a lot for me here in Canada - from ~$60/year to ~$85/year. That’s almost $100 a year for a task manager by the time you add taxes. And since I can’t use Todoist at work for security reasons, that means I’m just housing a few around the house and personal tasks that don’t necessitate a $100 task manager. I’m out.

So…

Evernote → Bear
Todoist → Reminders

I produce hymns to use as backing tracks for our church choir when our organists are unavailable.

Are you using the free (SE) version of Dorico? Why do you prefer it over Musescore?

Yes, at the moment I am using the free Dorico SE version. I just clicked with Dorico for rapid note input and prefer the playback engine too. I like the engraving options a little more in Dorico and one of the main reasons for the switch was the wealth of well paced tutorials from Dorico’s own Anthony Hughes. He is so easy to listen to as an instructor and his pacing is perfect for me.

To be honest Word is quite capable and a good enough replacement to InDesign. Have done in the past layouts that I thought weren’t possible in Word

Tried the new free Affinity?

My wife is using the affinity suite so we have it and it is quite good. And we have done some projects together in it. Right now the primary work that I am currently doing must be done word. So that’s what I do.
