        You go “Oh, right” then take it out and look at it. As quaint as that sounds, for some people it works.

          Since my second child, my “Oh right” module has been malfunctioning and has been very unreliable, and the amount of things I need to remember is waaay too many to fit on a piece of paper that can fit in my pocket. I wish I could use your system. 🥲

            For sure, there’s no way this system would work for me either! I would need a to do list in another place that had a task to check the first to do list.

    I use neorg for neovim, specifically I use:Neorg journal today to open up a daily .Norge file that I maintain notes, todo, etc on.

    If I need to leave a note for myself for the future, I create a note for that day ahead of time.

      Went back to college last year and Joplin’s been amazing. More off-topic, but the only thing I wish it had was better search result organization.

    My main requirement is that it has to be available on my heavily locked down work phone and work laptop as well as my home ones. If it isnt in my face whenever I look at a screen, it isnt going to work. So it ends up being Google tasks.

    I use Trello to manage several lists (recurring daily, Tuesdays only, one-offs, etc) and reconcile them into a daily plan each morning

    Weird to not see (at the time I’m writing this) any mentions of “todoist” which people on forums have loved for ages. I’m not a fan at all so I’m glad to finally not see it as frequently. My preference for work, where I have multiple categories and statuses (including a “done and waiting for the other person to confirm” status) is Trello with some automations. For home, just simple reliable entry on phone and desktop, is Ticktick. I particularly love the natural date parsing built into Ticktick (can also be done in Trello with an automation), very useful for super fast task entry and due date/time scheduling.

      Same (wrt that last part). Trying to find one that works but it’s honestly exhausting after years of seeing them all be pretty much the same. And I can’t really articulate what it is that would make it be the one for me. I know I’m not helping in any way here, lol

    I’ve been a user of the GTD method for many, many years, so any app I use needs to be GTD-specific.

    Currently, I’m using Nirvana - have been for about 6 years. I like it so much, I paid for the lifetime sub, so haven’t really bothered to look elsewhere since.

    I make lists in Simplenote. I also add stuff to my native Reminders app and then ignore them notifications or keep pushing them off by setting them to fire again later. Sometimes I actually get around to them when I need a task to keep me busy during podcasts.
