I want this so much. We have to voice our desire to get back the Dashboard on macOS. As explained by 512px a long time ago:

Jobs pitched widgets as mini-apps that let you look up a quick bit of information without ruining your workflow or train of thought. They allowed for quick interactions. They were present when you needed them, and disappeared when you didn’t.

Why try to imagine new solutions to fix the widgets conundrum on macOS? The Dashboard was the only good solution where you could put widgets anywhere on the screen, then invoke them as needed. Dear Apple, are you reading this? πŸ₯ΊπŸ™πŸ»

Let’s enjoy one more time the Dashboard in its full glory.
