I hate to be that guy, but this looks exactly like https://teuxdeux.com/ , a service made by Tina Roth Eisenberg ( https://www.swiss-miss.com/ ) which has been around for a long long time. More than one product can exist in a space (and todo lists are a dime a dozen) and maybe this was a completely original idea and GMTA, but wow it sure looks like a note for note copy

Re: WeekToDo – Free Minimalist Weekly Planner App
#12I made https://easylists.app to solve my own problem. I want to make lists fast and essentially to treat them as throw away (just like pen and paper). Sometimes I have a "today" list. Sometimes I have a "Top 3" list. I change it up all the time.

#14It's so strange, but I hate being so spoiled for choice.
The main thing I miss about software from 20 years ago is that there were rarely more than two or three answers to the "which software should I use?" question. By today's standards, the tools we had were subpar. But it was easier to tell the best of the "worst" from the worst of the best.
I recall it being more of an issue with file size, stability, and RAM usage. The question of "does this have everything I need?" didn't often occur to us, because that seemed like a ludicrous proposition in a "hey, this thing is less than a meg to download!" environment.
These days, without a substantial amount of (sometimes dubious at best) preliminary research, you don't get to find out if something meets your needs until you have invested enough time to feel somewhat trapped in the new ecosystem.
Ultimately, I'm not saying things used to be better. The tools we have now are miraculous. It's just for those of us who got to experience web search before Google and web search after Google...we will always be searching for that next hit of finding a tool that is so dramatically and obviously better than its predecessors.

#16I like the concept. I plan my week in a similar manner with Notion: just add headlines for every week day. My issue is that the tasks often overflow and I rarely clean them up consistently. How does this app solve the problem of overwhelm?

#19I spend ~85% of my time inside Chrome such that the only possible tool that could work for me is a Chrome extension. I currently use https://prodtodolist.com/ for general reminders but it's too barebones and something like this implemented as a ~minimalist~ Chrome extension could be very handy.
Chrome has become the problem for me more than anything, because as much they want to be the OS of the web - they're pretty terrible at it.
