Haven't done this in a while, so bear with me...

https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Apps/...direct=Dia

Dia, a diagram "drawer" or "editor," either of these may fit. It's pretty easy to use, like Microsoft Visio, and, just like Visio, has plenty of built-in shapes, making the diagramming process easy.

One more thing that does emulate Visio is that it can download more symbols using another tool, but I think it's only for Windows. Am I right? It's 3AM here so just too lazy and unaware.

Good night.

Very good software, ports for Linux or via Wine do exist for sure if I remember right .  Confirmed macOS via Brew version works well too!  Long live free software!

Glad you like it.

Unfortunately, though, and I should have pointed this out, it is discontinued, as the last version was released in 2011, almost ten years in the past.

Nevertheless, it is a great program and still practical in today's world.

I just saw this today: https://wiki.mhut.org/software:libgen_desktop

Good for bookhunting if you're on windows. Unfortunately noone has made a mac or linux port yet but I reckon it will work in wine if you manage to install the .NET framework needed

.NET Framework for Wine? I believe it's Mono for Wine that comes as an install option when you first start up Wine.

Great finding. I must say cloud services are here to stay, so it's a good call. Maybe a "useful Internet services" thread is the future.
Remark: Lol at list of most popular searches. Worth the visit.
