The official Microsoft version is Run, and it's not bad. One of it's biggest limitations is it's not customizable, so no plugins or community like Alfred.
> PowerToys Run is a quick launcher for power users that contains additional features without sacrificing performance. It is open source and modular for additional plugins.
So this is false: it does support plugins, I just never heard of any.
Windows does not have Raycast? I don't know what I would do without it!
That must be a pretty huge opportunity. I don't use Windows, so not for me, but why no one has built something like it?
We're working on something similar at https://curiosity.ai - no plugins yet but something we have in our roadmap for next year.
I appreciate you recognizing the PPP to determine pricing. Definitely something that can convert me to buy a subscription. Here hoping the app is also accessible (for screen readers).
