Greetings - first post, I think. I don’t think I’ve ever signed up before. I’ve lurked quite a bit.

I’ve found TheBrain, sadly, to be unreliable in past incarnations. I think I got in at version 5 or 6 - maybe, long time ago - and it was awesome.

Around 8, I started losing nodes and having rough edges crop up enough I didn’t want to use it. I’m afraid version 9 may have some of the same problems.

Is there anything else that incorporates TheBrain’s concept of jump thoughts?

In other words, I’d like a note taking application that would let me link to another node in a bidirectional way. If I navigate to a note/node that other things have linked to, I’d like to be able to follow those links backward.

Anything like that out there?
