MacOS, and Linux, and Windows? Let me guess: it's some web-electron-app-native-things, right? Yes it is. Not gonna replace (native) Alfred for me, no.

Equally, it's free. Alfred wants me to pay for it again to upgrade to the newest version, but I'm feeling like I kind of don't want to sink more money into it ..

I once was a fan of electron until I ran some apps on a low end surface with little disk space. Something like react native for the desktop could become a huge success.

So basically... an imitation of Spotlight? I prefer that they copy Alfred's UI. Simple and does all I need. Need Alfred on my Windows machine!

Check Hain [1] on Windows. It works very nicely.

I've been using Alfred for probably 7 years or so, every single day, and I can't imagine not using it. Even if it had cost double what it does, I still think it's worth it.
