I would like to thank everyone who has helped and encouraged me to create/improve the apps over the years. No explanation is given, but Scott expects the various versions of his mind-mapping software to continue to run until a future version of macOS, iOS, or Windows causes them to fail. Downloads, license codes, and [2]documentation remain available. At the suggestion of a TidBITS member in 2014, I worked with Scott to add a 20% discount on iThoughtsX to the [3]TidBITS membership program. I have now removed it, but you can still find discounts on 86 other fine Mac apps. What alternatives to iThoughts would you recommend for those looking for mind-mapping software?
