You might be underestimating cross OS keyboard handling difficulties across keyboard layouts….

$150 is $90 more than getting Things for iOS and macOS. I'm a big Things user, will be curious to see if this is worth the price. Shame that it only nets you 18 months, and seemingly no support guarantee. I'm also curious how limitless bug fixes for older versions is going to work out. "Godspeed will never stop working" feels like a bold claim to make given enough time in "never." I've been using Things for 6 years n…
Agreed re: 18 months. Been using Things for 8-9 years now, tried Sunsama, Todoist, and Amazing Marvin but keep coming back to Things. Godspeed looks interesting enough vs Things to kick the tires b/c: 1. Speed of date picking and moving todos (choosing dates in Things is a mouse operation and I do it multiple times a day. It's 2024 guys, we don't need calendar pickers when we have command palettes) 2. Image support (…
Cultured Code's rate of development is my greatest negative, lol. Text resizing is the biggest feature add in recent memory.

#45Love 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…
Do you have Things for Mac? I loved Things on my iPhone until I saw the Mac version is another CAD 70. Now I use vanilla Obsidian with checkboxes - super simple, and I own the file. There's no snoozing though - you have to cut-paste a task into a different todo list if you want to move it. I'm sure there's also a plugin that would make it more org-mode-ish.
It's a one time purchase for both though, I've used it almost daily (at least during the week) for 3 years or so now.

#46Is it opensource? Looking at the main page, i really like what I see. It is very sleek and the integration between Mac and IOS looks great.

I am (personally) alright with this model. $150 is on par with OmniFocus Pro [0] which I've gotten easily more than $150 of value out of. (Including prior purchases of earlier versions, and similar price points.) With todo apps, I don't really expect the same sort of constant on-slaught of features like I do from other things. I expect it to continue to work and get out of the way. I expect the price to reflect the f…
Right, but by choosing to go keyboard-focused it's competing in a space with very feature-rich Vim and Emacs plugins (and users who want to work out of those) that are free. Even the Sublime users have lots of options already. Sublime is ALSO a very capable text editor and $100.
The OP is likely trying to deliver something like Superhuman ($30/month) - speed and keyboard focused-email - but for todos. I would imagine there is very little overlap between that market and people who use vim or emacs + plugins.

I'm a big fan of Things (started with V1) and am happy they're getting stiffer competition. Will help both products and I'll benefit.

#50Looks extremely nice. One thing that I’ve had serious difficulty with though is keeping my Jira/Asana and Google Tasks all linked up somehow. I guess it’s a non-goal, but do you envision a future where you would integrate with those solutions? Of course any integration would hopefully sync lazily in the background instead of blocking the render…
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.
