A scratchpad that never moves and never talks back. It has shipped with macOS since 1994 for a reason.
The moment a note has a deadline, Stickies goes quiet. Saydown notes carry a countdown. When one is due, it comes to the front and stays until handled.
And you never type. Tap right ⌘, say "call the bank before five", done. Speech recognition runs on your Mac; notes never leave it.
