I've had trouble understanding the use case for mindmapping software, so I'd be curious to hear what you use Xmind for! I feel like I'd have to constantly fight with the layout to prevent my diagrams from turning into a big spaghetti mess. For most of the demos on their website, a simple nested list seems just as effective at communicating the same information.
- encryptluks2 5y agoI haven't used XMind recently, but previously I found it great to use for studying or for brainstorming where I could easily show connections or hierarchy within thoughts. When trying to understand complex ideas or even sometimes architecture I find it easier to display in a mind map at first than to use other diagramming software. I think of it like tiling window manager.. rather than manage all the windows myself, the mind map software does it for me.
