Hey, I'm the creator of Ummm. Not really on the roadmap anytime soon, but it's also still early for the product! Right now it's more about getting a grasp of what people want out of it, squashing some bugs and improving the UX further — before moving development further into a specific direction.

#5Congratulations on getting something out there! As a nitpick: it's really difficult to understand what the product is trying to achieve, and my friend had the same complaint. Might I suggest a more concrete way to explain how this approach differs exactly, with ample examples if at all possible. An interactive demo page would also be very helpful.

#8Like the UX (although I'm curious as to how the mind maps may look), won't use a service that bills me for having Markdown export. Or most things with a subscription.
(I got badly burnt by Evernote and tend to prefer having most of my notes on an actual usable filesystem, with the exception of OneNote since it's been around for so long - and I work at MS, so have learned to live with it).

That seems like an excellent alternative. Thank you.

Spent 1 minute trying to understand how it works, so, I agree.
