I think wunderlist is pretty much what stayed with me for longest. Everything else kind of falls away. And paper of course :) I appreciate innovations in this space, however I stopped even trying new things as experience shows they don't bring much once novelty wears off.

I keep on thinking about writing one that actually mirrors the way I think of tasks.

I don't think of all tasks equally. I have long term things, that usually get put off until they are not so long term. Big things that can be subtasked. Small things. Important things. Things that need done by lunchtime. So far I have not seen one that does anything like this. Does anyone know of one?

Anyway, writing it will be on my todo list.

Combined with dropbox or some other remote storage and sync tool across multiple devices, this works wonders. There is an org-mode app for mobile devices as well. Of course people who dislike emacs might have a problem but it's quite hackable and there is nothing to keep one from associated .org files with emacs and using emacs just for todo lists (theres only about 5 or 8 commands in org-mode that you really have to…

What's the accepted most mature Vim equivalent or clone for org mode? Is there any?

vimoutliner (https://github.com/vimoutliner/vimoutliner) is also terribly mature and appropriate for a lot of tasks one might use Org mode for - certainly worth a look.
