An algebra \(A\) is called minimally free if it contains a subset \(X\), called a pseudobasis, such that every map \(X\to A\) extends uniquely to an endomorphism of \(A\). The author considers the interactions of minimal freeness with various notions of commutativity. The results are applied to Abelian groups and idempotent semigroups.
