This looks a lot like something I have been imagining in my head (and tinkering with building on and off for a while). Thank you, I will for sure try this.
One thing that stands out to me though is the lack of mobile support. I want my note-taking app to also handle my shopping lists, and then I need to be able to access them while in the grocery store on my mobile.
Yes, having my grocery shopping list in a note-taking app is overkill - it's just that I want all my lists and notes in one place.

The new release looks awesome and I will give it a try. Thank you for the great work!
I am still missing one thing: A live markdown editor (real time preview) like in Mark Text[0] and Typora[1].
Of course MindForger contains much more really useful features to connect thoughts and stay organized but somehow I prefer the writing experience with real time preview (it is also less intimidating for users who don't know markdown which is very likely if they don't work in IT).
I don't say this has to be the de facto default but I would appreciate a "live-mode" you can toggle.

Looks very promising. What would be the advantages if switching from org mode?

Nice to see an open-source alternative to ConnectedText [1], though, it looks pretty unstable for 1.50.0 release (constantly crashes on switching views, graph navigator is lagging even with 3 nodes, no control over the window's layout and sizing).

Thank you, dvorka! I recall having come across your website, and MindForger a few weeks ago when I was looking for lite Markdown editors. Thank you for posting. I am going to try it soon.

The idea looks interesting, but I don't feel like the examples show a strong enough improvement over just using multiple windows and some pdfs and a notebook.

Is it possible to sync notes to mobile and quickly make small changes? Simple Note is the best at this. Currently I am using inkdrop which is a little slower to load due to the web view refresh of react native.

Looks interessting and horrible. UI and UX seems to need much more love till it becomes friendly.
There is no navigation-history?

That screenshot looks like it was designed by me, except I would have used a different color scheme, or given you a color scheme switcher dropdown somewhere.
This is unfortunately not a compliment. I suppose it's great, but something designed by me will always be borderline unusable.
This looks very interesting. Somehow didn't know about Mindforger, even though I read a lot about this subject.
