I use the Mindmark plug-in for Logseq most of the time. I have used and liked FreeMind in the past.
Free and Open Source Software
If it's free and open source and it's also software, it can be discussed here. Subcommunity of Technology.

Likewise the graph view for obsidian (not foss) or foam (extension for vscode/vscodium) . The graph view is perhaps less useful than the traditional mind map (great if you just want to see connections though) but overall these options are much more powerful
FreeMind maybe is what you looking for: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeMind Freeplane seems to be an option too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeplane
Thanks, later I'll give a check. I think that freemind pop out on my search but I get so many results that I did not know which was better
FreePlane is the one you want.
FreeMind is the first java based free one, but appears abandoned. FreePlane has many features like templates and themes, plus the ability to use templates to create custom input types.
Dumb question: what’s a mind map? i’ve heard of it, and seen some examples, but still have no real idea what one is for.
