Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Aleksei, and I built Thoughts. Remember sticky notes on the fridge? Quick thoughts, a reminder, a phone number — you stuck them wherever you’d see them, and nobody asked you to pick a folder first. My notes moved into apps that did exactly that: folders, lists, titles before I’d written a word. My ideas kept getting lost between “where does this go?” and “I’ll write it later.” So I built the fridge for my Mac. You drag anywhere to create a card and put it wherever it makes sense. Except your fridge never had this: • Nine Spaces for work, home and projects — ⌥Tab shows them all at once • Locks for any Space (passcode or Touch ID) and blur for single cards • Live Markdown, color tags and kanban boards inside cards • It can live right on your desktop, above the icons, so notes stay in sight • Optional AI: on-device Apple Intelligence or your own key — nothing is sent unless you ask • iCloud sync between your Macs It’s a native Mac app (SwiftUI/AppKit), and I’m a solo maker. The latest update (1.4.2) adds kanban cards, the all-Spaces overview and a short animated tour for new users. I’d love your honest feedback: what would make a notes app feel right for you? I’ll read and answer every comment.
