Most of the mind mapping features are free. There is a subscription for advanced features, outliner, batch actions and shortcuts, and some of the subscription features can continue to be used even if you end the $9.99/yr subscription.

Escape's developers did a good job of making their app look like MindNode.

Escape's mapping module does resemble Mindnode's.
But Mindnode doesn't do text outlining well, while Escape has a separate writing mode that seems more like a color-coded version of Dynalist.

MindNode could be so much more. For instance, I'd like to see three dimensions. Let each node potentially have a sub-map and MindNode would be truly awesome.
But I can't quite stop using it. The outlining could be better. Otherwise, it's pleasant on the eyes and MindNode support is really awesome.
There was an update a few days ago that clobbered the layout of the Command-K link popup. I emailed MindNode, got a reply in an hour or so that said it would be fixed in the next update. The next update was a few hours after that and the link entry field was fixed.
Mistakes happen, no big deal. MindNode pays attention to problem reports, and that is a big deal. Very nice.

Indeed, I’ve built a full-featured outliner mode on par with the mind mapping mode. You can add, edit, style, and reorder topics, assign tasks, and sort by alphabet, completion or priority.
It's based on the infinite canvas technology, and the page width expands as needed to prevent squeezing the notes on the last levels.
