Congrats on launching!

I have to say, though, this looks uncannily like my own app, Remember, that I launched a few months ago:

* https://remember.defn.io/

* https://apps.apple.com/ro/app/remember-quick-reminders/id149...

* https://github.com/bogdanp/remember

Right down to the key bindings and some of the marketing copy[1].

Remember looks great.

> This application is not Open Source. I'm providing the source code here because I want users to be able to see the code they're running and even change and build it for themselves if they want to. In that vein, you're free to read, build and run the application yourself, on your own devices, but please don't share any built artifacts with others.

Minor bit of feedback, it would be great to add a licence file to GitHub to expose this a bit more clearly and in a more standard way. I have no problem with this choice, but I can see some users missing this licence-esque bit of the README.

FWIW, in terms of user interface I think we’re all consciously or subconsciously inspired by the apps we use everyday such as Spotlight and Alfred.

For example, here’s my todo list menubar app launched many months before Remember: https://wip.chat/menubar

I bet other people will reply with similar looking apps launched months before mine :)

[Bogdanp]

Yes, definitely. I was just struck by how close some of the similarities were in this case. That said, it is a simple enough class of app that there are bound to be similarities between them and I was sincere in congratulating the OP.

No affiliation with either of you. But, it does not look the same to me. The linked HN post is a simple MacOS top bar tool that shows my list of to-dos that may be activated by key bindings if I wish.

Yours looks more like the default Cmd+Space action - Spotlight available in MacOS.

I personally prefer the simplicity of the app that lives in the top bar as it comes with lower cognitive load by not needing to remember some keywords to summon your tool that is not in my active view.

Remember requires 10.15, according to my App Store. I bought one of the first thousand Mac 128k's, suffered through systems 1-9, bought dozens of Macs and clones since, and from what I've read I have no intentions of upgrading to 10.15 till I need to replace hardware.
