Why does it look like that though. I wish open source projects would spend a bit more time on design.

Been a while since I used it, but as I recall it was very simple to customize the design. My opinion is that, aside from fonts, functionality trumps design, and there's typically a tradeoff between the two.

For personal use I can recommend this Obsidian plugin. It turns a markdown file into a Kanban board. https://github.com/mgmeyers/obsidian-kanban

There doesn't seem to be anything that doesn't exist as an Obsidian plugin!

Hacker News client to read comments in Obsidian?

I actually like it, apart from maybe text needing a little bit more padding when close to the edges of the cards etc. The UI is minimalist without feeling like it's lacking, it's usable and the performance is great because it doesn't try to have lots of fancy gradients or animations for the sake of it. Still using OpenProject because of the nice multi-project feature set there and Jira having rotten my brain, but Kan…

There is a plugin which greatly improves UI and somewhat UX.
