I have no idea what sticky note apps are out there but I would rather have one scriptable/cli/tui then a gui version.
Something in this style

Note: this was the first hit ... doesn't have to be this one. Someone who users sticky notes might know a better one.

not sure if that is the same but I have a similar script that does something similar.

  1. copy some content that you would like to store in a folder/file.
  2. if the folder/file does not exist create them first before the clipboard content is pasted
  3. copy the content of a file back to the clipboard
  4. edit the file in nvim

That could work, i would love to be able to do vim movement. But i think of this as a content that is similar with the one on windows, so that even people that aren't used to vim could easily enjoy the content as well. I do think the app that i suggested can have a lot of enhancement especially in shortcut area. I haven't check the other variation of sticky notes-ish app as well.
