I moved from mind maps (I used and liked FreeMind) to indented outlines in plain text files when I realized I wasn't really losing anything to map the nodes to headings and the edges to sub-headings. I can capture the same relationships, keep it synced to everywhere via cloud storage, and I don't need special software beyond a text editor to look at or edit it.

Now I just need to learn how to go back through them.



One thing I do , which combines the two is create the lists in Obsidian, then use the mind map plugin to visualize them.


This is an interesting idea, but I couldn’t find Mind Map in the list of core plugins. Is this a community plug-in you’re talking about?


Yes, it's a community plugin: https://github.com/lynchjames/obsidian-mind-map


Mindnonde lets you build a mindmap and export as markdown so a reversal I guess
