I will try this out as a tool to manage my private tasks. I always wanted something like Jira for my personal life.

That sounds really dystopian. Akin to having a Scrum standup with the kids each morning before school.

Do you mean personal programming projects or in general?

You must be fun at parties.

Jokes aside, I’ve found the Todoist app really great for managing the chaos that’s my life and making sure the things that need doing get done!

I'm all for open source task trackers, but the UI in most parts is a rip off of Linear.

linear is MIT license, so taking their UI design seems ok

I don't know about IP, but Linear is a web app and company that is not broadly open source, not even open-core, and is not something presented as something the user can self host.

Well, I believe everyone is following on the Tailwind Template UI designs with Neumorphic-ish patterns these days. For instance, check these templates and tell me you haven't stumbled on new Startups launches these days with strikingly similar designs.

Personally, I'm perfectly fine as long as they are pleasing to look and nice to use.

No relations with any. Stumbled on them here on HN and an early customer of TailwindUI.

I'd like to hear more. Do you think that full-fledged issue tracker is a benefit, even if you're not working with other people?

My intuition is that if you have multiple tasks in a project, and you're the only one working on them, a simple list should be enough?

Are you a masochist?

Just use MS Todo or Apple Reminders or something. That's all you need for personal stuff and it costs a grand total of zero.

I am using a (home-made) work management software for my personal projects (programming or otherwise). It's just good organization. Allows me to get done more than I would be able to do relying just on my brain. And I can always ignore it if I don't feel like working.
