I have a tool (MindNode) that thinks ".md" is supposed to belong to it

Which is stupid

Because markdown has been using ".md" for far longer than MindNode's been around

But c'est la vie - I just make sure I have ".md" associated with my markdown editor of choice, and force MindNode to only open files through File->Open



Hi, I am one of the engineers working on MindNode. We don’t register MindNode as the owner of “md”, but as an app that can open and save to this file type. If we don’t do this we are unable to import and export Markdown files. You can change the default app anytime in Finder by using “Get Info (cmd+i)” and choose an app in the “Open with:” section of the Info window.
