OneNote replacement (free)

[duke_33]

Hi guys, I'm looking for a free replacement for OneNote. And the feature I'm interested about is organization of notes in a hierarchical way (nesting notes). I've tried Zim and CherryTree. They are really nice, but what is whit pasted images? I just can't drag them and move around, nor resize them just by clicking on a corner and dragging. Is it me that I could not find a way to do it? It feels incredibly inconvenient and crippled. Also saw about Joplin, but I'm not interested on markdown format.

Any advice on another software to try?
Any explanation about what I've experienced with the pictures? Maybe there's an easy way to handle them and I did not realize

Thanks!

I don't have any recommendations amongst these:

But I think I have heard the best endorsements for Cherrytree.

Cherrytree can resize images but not how yhou descibed. Look in their onlinbe manual. I haven't used this feature myself though.

Finding alternatives to Windows apps in Linux isn't hard, but finding programs that work the same is. Generally programs native to both OSes is the only way. I use cherrytree and zim is good too.

They can be resized, but got to right click and input manually the size, pretty incovinient. And could not find a way to dra and reposition them, which is a pretty basic thing and should not be that hard to find out or do

Well... I'm not looking for something that behaves the same,I just can't believe that putting to images side by side or dragging them around can't be done, or is complicated, as it is resizing an image, and I was giving those features for granted. Thanks for your advice.

I was unable to find any Linux based note app that met my needs,

I ended up with www.Evernote.com which is perfect for my requirements.

accessible from anywhere via the web, or on my cellphone as a dedicated device.

one thought though, as OneNote is a windows product, install Wine and then install OneNote

I did that so that I could use MS Office Pro 2003, LibreOffice and I don't get along at all.

Thanks! I tried it, but it does not have nesting notes feature, which is the one I'm interested the most!
