Alright LifeHacker, I do love you dearly, I've read you for a decade or more, but the last line of your article here made me shutter in a bad way.
'Clicky' Is a macOS Companion That Can Help You With Just About Anything
"...But I've already found it to be genuinely useful, especially when it comes to finding out how to learn to do something inside an app, without having to look up the answer online. It's easy to see how Apple and Microsoft might eventually add tools like this of their own."
Not discounting the usefulness for context-sensitive information, but one person's convenience can be another person's distraction, the exact trade-off I grapple with each day at my job, and Lifehacker did poorly here. Granted, I do too sometimes, I'm sure. Should those tools ever come to other platforms, especially if it blinks next to my cursor, off they go.
