   More features than Freemind, more active development

   Freeplane began as a fork of the Freemind project. While maintaining comparability with Freemind file format, it has far outpaced in features and development. As of 3/5/2022, the latest Freeplane update (1.9.3) is 3/5/2022 vs Freemind was last updated (1.0.1) 2/5/2016. Active, helpful community.

  There are a number of free and commercial softwares developed for diagrams, flowcharts, and mind mapping with similar features. I haven't used them in a while, but in the past I've liked yEd and VUE. Both are free and support multiple platforms. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is Tufts’ Visual Understanding Environment dead? It was amazing but won’t open.

  The site is working for me ( https://vue.tufts.edu ) as is the download, so it was probably a temporary glitch. Source: over 2 years ago

• App/Software with videos?

  I think your best bet may be Visual Understanding Environment (VUE). I can't say for sure if it will store or play videos but they make a big deal about "digital media" on their website. Source: almost 3 years ago
