One process I still can’t do well in available software is structuring talks & essays. Requires a spatial canvas that handles text well. Always still happens in a notebook, or a giant sheet of paper. Miro is decent, but unconnected to existing notes in Roam, links to refs, etc.

What about something like Scrivener, which allows for fairly modular writing? Not sure if it hits the spot in terms of being able to effectively link ideas Roam-style, but perhaps could work in conjunction?

Oh yeah I used Scrivener in the past and love how it allows you to flexibly switch views (cork board / verbose linear text / summary outline). Should go back to playing with it for specific tasks, eg. structuring talks Exporting a selection from Roam might not be too janky

Came here to mention scrivener. I’d love to see their cork board to doc structure feature on something cloud based. Roam42 might have a better roam export option into scrivener
