This looks like a fascinating new note-taking software. However, I find it a bit surprising that it's currently only available on the Mac platform. In my understanding, if the most important requirement for a GTD application is to open quickly, the second most important requirement is convenient input. Not having a mobile version is somewhat hard to accept, especially since the homepage indicates that it's a rather low priority in the planning. I suggest that the mobile version should be prioritized and developed as soon as possible. Additionally, I recommend launching a web version at the same time; it doesn't need to have many features—at the basic stage, it should just allow adding and browsing todos. Features like notes and the Pomodoro timer can be left out for now and made available only on the desktop.

Overall, it seems quite good. The quick todo addition feature, diverse display and filtering options for todos, and the aesthetically pleasing note interface are all commendable. However, the Pomodoro timer, as a separately listed feature, feels a bit hollow. It would be great if it could be more closely integrated with todos and notes. For instance, todos could have a Pomodoro attribute to track the number of Pomodoros completed, and the note-taking feature could include a Pomodoro timer function.

Additionally, the document tree, tabbed browsing, and lock screen are features that many users appreciate, yet they often seem to be absent in new software. It's nice to see that this software has considered these aspects.

That said, these impressions are based on a cursory look at the documentation; I haven't downloaded the software for experience since I don't have a Mac. So, please let me know when a Windows and Linux version is available, and ideally, there would be a mobile version by then.

Furthermore, I noticed that the software seems to have good support for Chinese, but this isn't reflected in the font options. The font switch only offers Serif, which is common for many foreign software. I hope that if resources allow, you can consider adding support for Chinese fonts, such as Song or Hei.

Lastly, I have a suggestion regarding the documentation. It would be beneficial to separate the design theory into its own chapter and include it in the "Why" section. While I personally don't mind, based on feedback from Hacker News, it seems that this is not well received by many users.
