Hi Amontillado:

To be honest, I have not thought much about mind mapping programs for a while. I do have MindDomo, and have enjoyed using it in the past, but it is not part of my process now, as I grapple with trying to get going on Obsidian.

Your question got me thinking, so I went to the FastMindMap site. As I looked at it, I began to wonder whether I need to think again about mind mapping.

My first response was more aesthetic than anything else. The program has a dated design, and it reminded me of why I am not turned on by the program designs I see on a lot of software today. I like FastMindMap’s visual presence.

And then I looked at the features, and mind map examples (I wish there had been more examples), and I generally liked what I saw - enough that I will probably download the 14-day free trial. incidentally, the buy page offers the “basic edition”.so naturally I wonder if there is an advanced edition, or if one is planned. If the answer to those questions is no, I wonder why the reference to a “basic edition”?

I don’t see that there’s an Android version. I work sometimes on my phone and/or Samsung tablet, and I think I might miss the convenience of being able to do that if I decide to use FastMindMap.

Amontillado, I am curious about what you said of having “a positive feeling about the developer”. Is that because of the way the site presents FastMindMap, or do you know the developer? The site itself, including the comments from users, leaves me with a positive feeling, and that reflects on the developer.

Thanks for mentioning FastMindMap.
