Ensō is a writing tool that helps you enter a state of flow by separating writing from editing and thus making it harder for you to edit yourself - https://enso.sonnet.io/

After 6 years and 2 million words of daily writing I feel like I've learned enough to make Ensō simpler and more accessible.

Longtime Ensō user here. Your update to query interest in a Linux version has given me hope. The last thing someone actively trying to avoid distraction needs is an open browser window!

Consider this:

  cat > ~/my-notes.txt <<EOF
  Type here anything you want. 
  To save and finish, type:
  EOF

Zero software to install, no editing except maybe backspace, no selection, no spellchecking, no formatting, no distractions on the screen.
