I'm already using a few applications for hierarchical note taking. I like the graphical implementation as in the worklowy and gqueues.

Workflowy has nice organization of information but it lacks the feature of moving branches to other levels in the hierarchy. This feature is possible in Gqueues but lacks the nice features of Workflowy of structuring information.

Could you recommend some open source application (webbased with open source or for Linux OS desktop, not mobile application) which is such a mix of Workflowy and Gqueues? It can be GUI application or text-based similar to tudu.

It should not be mindmapping application.

There are so many excellent ones but not on Linux. Suppose the best app for your application is on another OS do you accept a second ( or less ) best app just to stay on Linux? – ndroock1 Apr 15 at 7:27
@ndroock1 It depends on what the app is. – xralf Apr 17 at 17:16

You should try Org mode for Emacs. This certainly requires some keyboard mastery. However, it is possibly the most feature-rich applications you can find if you don't require much of a point-and-click.

I think this question might not be appropriate to be asked here.

Try XMind for Debian/Ubuntu. It is primarily used for mindmapping, but I suppose it can be used for hierarchical notetaking as well.
