shingamba I want something that stays/displays on the desktop, just like the weather applet.
Sounds like you're happy with knotes, but I thought I'd also menton that the Vivaldi browser now has a notes feature that's pretty impressive. I've only looked at it briefly, so I can't tell you much about it, but I plan to explore it a lot more, based on what I've seen just now.
It lives on a panel in the browser that's quite siimilar to Raven in Budgie, and it's a markdown editor. You can create formatted text, insert screen shots, etc., and there's an option to open the note as a tab in the browser, so any note could become full-screen if you like.
As I said, I've just checked it out briefly, but I'm pretty impressed. Vivaldi is an excellent browser as well.
