Scrivener 3 ( https://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener/overview ) is significantly better than the early (talking pre 2018) Windows versions. Which was the last time I used it. Scrivener doesn't really do anything that can't be done in multiple other ways (With Linux I have used Vim + UndoTree + Vimwiki , PCManFM and folders, in a similar way, for hobby stuff with LibreOffice for final formatting - VimWiki is an ace note taking tool) but..

Scrivener does it all in a very coherent, consistent, logical way. I didn't pay for the upgrade because I when I originally bought Scrivener it was so far behind the Mac version they incentivised Windows users* with a free upgrade. Shame there isn't a Linux version, given it uses Qt - on the other hand, it must be such a minority of users it makes little sense to concentrate much effort on a native port.

Like the best professional software it does nothing for a person other than making it easier for the person to do stuff they know how to do. Not stuff they don't. Like a ukulele or a skateboard or a pen. A recommended piece of software. That said, George R. R. Martin used WordStar with DOS so maybe going too retro makes a person more likely to write, albeit very successful, fantasy novels. The tools, probably, matter less than the text. I say probably because a chisel or laser is probably essential under some circumstances.

* Which is why I only used it briefly.
