I am moving on

How can an App get worse over time? As a user over several years, I’ve noticed its evolving with trends (cloud only storage - bad move!). It’s not evolving with user needs. MORE IS LESS..

한글 폰트 지원

기존에 클래식 버전에세는 한글 서체 지원이 돼서 폰트 적용해서 정리하기 좋았는데 넥스트 버전에서는 적용이 안돼서 아쉬워요. 적용 가능할 수 있게 업데이트 해주시면 감사하겠습니다. 다른 건 다 좋아요!

A regression

MindNode Classic remains simply better than the new version. The move away from files is a serious misstep.

This is 'cloud only'. They've hidden the old file-based version, even from subscribers.

They're so obsessed with making their mindmapper cloud-only, which is incredibly inconvenient if you have to work offline and depend on being able to make your own backups (backups are impossible under this new model! Something goes wrong, you're out of luck.) I don't understand how obstinate this company is to completely overturn and remove their old file-based storage systems. I got Soulver 4, which also uses 'cloud' storage - which makes sense for transitory documents, not files you need to back up and process locally - but even *they* have an option to create locally files. It's sheer bloodymindedness on this company's part to remove one of the most foundational, basic elements of software - that you can edit and copy your own files - and hide it behind a morass of intermittently based servers. With that as a caveat, if you're using this professionally, bear in mind that this is no longer the dependable, serious piece of software and the company will pull the rug out from under paying users without notice.
