I have some #flowcharts made in #Kivio from #KOffice. Anyone have a way to convert them to #Dia format?

Iโve been tasked with writing some processes, procedures and related documentation and immediately thought about information mapping. I worked a lot with that 18-20 years ago.
When I now try to google it, I get very few results. Itโs like the world has moved on and invented something else.
What have I missed?

๐ค Ah, the age-old quest to turn #screenwriting into a series of #flowcharts because who needs #creativity when you have probabilistic graphs? ๐ฅโจ Apparently, just input some text and voila, your Oscar-winning #screenplay is readyโassuming you can afford their "simple" #pricing. ๐ธ๐ป

My app https://flowrun.io/ is now free for educators using Google Classroom (up to 30 students). Featuring scheduled exams, autograding, templates etc. :)
TIL how to use Mermaid (for flow charts) thanks to @rlcw simply telling me about it in mid-to-late April. Apparently it's available as a M365 Loop Component.
Good stuff. Honestly, it's easier than any manual flow chart solution I've ever used. Don't be intimidated.
๐จ๐ฅ๏ธ Ah, the thrilling world of online text-to-diagram #tools, where cutting-edge #technology allows you to convert your existential dread into #flowcharts without leaving the browser! ๐คฏ๐ฅฑ Who knew that 2025 would bring us the #innovation of text editing in diagram toolsโsurely, the future is here, one pixelated arrow at a time! ๐๐ค

๐ Ah yes, because what the world truly needed was another way to turn our #indecipherable brain-dumps into indecipherable #flowcharts. ๐ค Just paste some text and voila, #instant #confusion generatorโperfect for when your meeting needs a bit more #chaos. ๐

What software do you like for making #flowcharts?
I used to try to do it in Powerpoint, and I hate it so much.
๐ข๐ข New version of my curated list of #online #modeling #editors
Highlights:
โ 3 ๐ฃ and 1 ๐ชฆ since the last review
โ We start to see the integration of #AI, "AI-driven diagramming"
โ Most are #drawing tools, not modeling ones (so no #semantics)
โ #UML and #BPMN models are just one of the many types of diagrams offered by the tools. By far, not the most important ones. Less-structured diagrams, such as #flowcharts are more popular
Which is your web-based editor of choice? I need to go with BESSER but I won't get angry if you suggest others ๐

Mermaid diagram syntax is a low-key very useful skill to have as a software developer.
