Boy would I love an task manager to respect the fact that work happens in other tools, and provide a centralized layer on top of the tools I integrate with.
Sunsama is a tool like this if you use the apps it integrates with.
I really love the infinite nesting. I’m curious about snoozing on recurring tasks. After using OmniFocus I feel making tasks disappear and review are really important useful features to me.
When you snooze a recurring task in Godspeed you use the same date picker as for setting a date, so you have full power and flexibility to choose whatever date/time you'd like. And it only snoozes _this instance_ of the task, without changing future recurring due dates.
Love it. I've been increasingly dissatisfied with Things. Specific things I'm looking for in a Todo manager: 1. iPhone Mac apps and syncing 2. Hotkeys + Speed 3. Shared lists (you don't even mention this until I get into Guides, but I love it) 4. Smart lists 5. Nesting 6. Pasting images 7. Projects + subtasks 8. An inbox 9. Snoozing to the future 10. Focus mode (gets rid of everything else EXCEPT for the current task…
I'm surprised no one in this thread has mentioned Workflowy[0]. It is extremely minimal and elegant, does everything that you're looking for (on first glance), and is completely free. Not to be hyperbolic but the interface is ingenious in it's power and simplicity. Give it a shot. [0]: https://workflowy.com/basics/
It's not completely free. [0] A set of features are available free. The complete set of features runs > $4/month, depending on whether you pay monthly or yearly.
I am currently rethinking my awful home organisation A dropbox folder for each “case”/“project”. A dropbox folder for each outside compmay A password manager Some gaffing with scripting to tie it together I think pythonista ought to be part of it too Edit: @DanielDe - apologies for that brain dump. You built an app and launched it - fantastic. Honestly That’s an achievement most of us on HN cannot even claim. - my ho…
Really appreciate the kind words! Indeed, actually launching is hard. Like everyone, I've got a big pile of abandoned side projects sitting in a folder somewhere.
I think we're pretty aligned on staying organized. For me, the most important bit is "capture". I need to be able to get tasks out of my head and into a task tracker from as many places as possible. Then later I can triage them.
Godspeed attempts to help with this by offering a global hotkey for quick entry, and an iOS app with Siri and shortcuts support. We also intend to add "log a task by email" soon.
Apart from it being probably a great app... "Pay once $149 keep it forever, ongoing compatibility updates + bug fixes, 18 months of new features" ...this is not old skool pay once payment. It is just one payment for 18 months of subscription to new features which makes it slightly more expensive than monthly subscription. Go figure.
With the subscription, you lose access when you stop paying.
So I think it is pretty comparable to an old school one-time payment, but with bug fixes and compatibility updates added on top.

TickTick looks pretty nice, and doesn't seem to be Electron. Thanks, gonna trial it now!
Update: subscribed to premium already, this is great. Shame they don't offer family or team plans.
Side note: although TickTick supports notes, I don't use them. I dig UpNote, another not-super-well-known but simple, cross-platform, and inexpensive tool. It's basically the feature-set I wished Evernote stopped at (super subjective, maybe too simple for most here).
Cool app. It would be really nice to have a pdf somewhere of all shortcuts that I could have open next to the app/print out.
The date picker alone makes me consider switching. This is what has always brought me back to Things.
What gives, I am not allowed to create a todo for Today or This Evening when it is already late in the day? That does not make a lot of sense to me.
Just curious if it supports blockers and dependencies? Where one task can block multiple others, and where a task can be blocked by multiple others?
However, there are a couple options you could use: 1. Use nested tasks for this purpose. If task B is nested beneath task A, then B is a dependency of A. Godspeed supports infinite nesting (okay, okay - MAX_INT levels of nesting) 2. You could use labels and smart lists. Give blocked tasks a "Blocked" label and create a smart list that filters out any tasks that are blocked.
Does this have shared workspaces? Absolutely hate clickup, this seems like a good replacement if I can share workspaces
