Just for comparison, I've had a couple crashes in about a year of daily use. Definitely less than IntelliJ or Chrome has crashed, but more than vim.
That's really unfair comparison. IntelliJ and Chrome are more complex piece of software.
Self plug, I'm developing a minimal gui for Taskwarrior, focused on keyboard navigation. https://github.com/tmahmood/taskwarrior-web/ Task warrior is the my core of task management, as I've ADHD,I lost track of my task if it's not easily visible, this ui helps me with that. It shows timer for active task on the top. Future plan is to integrate time warrior too.

Don't get me wrong, this is probably great software, but there is a big field of tasks like reminder apps, calendar, note taking apps etc. for which I just use a plain free form text editor. I don't quite see what these tools offer, other than pretty user interfaces. And after taking the time to learn the new tools, there will still be cases when I won't have access to them, while plain text works everywhere
I did only use a text file before fiddling with those two features and finding they did actually help me. Nowadays I use taskwarrior for anything that will last longer than a day, and a temporary text file for only the things I plan to do that day.

I spend all day editing in VSCode -- it's nice to use the same tool (and vim keys)

Do you know if this is still being actively developed? I looked at it a few months ago and was worried it looked like it was being abandoned.
What made you think that? The changelog lists recent changes: https://community.amazingmarvin.com/changelog
Depending on when they looked, maybe the big gaps in releases before this year? Did it change ownership or just get more active?
Another shameless plug: git-task Task manager or bug tracker that resides right within git repository and can sync with GitHub. It's on a very early stage of development, but somehow works. I'd really appreciate any ideas on what can be done/improved (actually, a lot). https://github.com/jhspetersson/git-task
Some issues I remember in general (not all of these applied to all these distributed bug trackers) that caused them to largely be abandoned:
* No single view of cases: At least one of them was tied to the current commit, so a case could be resolved on a branch but not master
* No central view for non-devs
* Updating happened outside normal git operations so it was easy to forget to push/pull case changes
* One of them that avoided the previous issue made heavy use of branches to keep its data in the main repo, so it turned the repo into a mess
* Even if you did push/pull, updates aren't synchronous with a central location so it was totally possible for two people to assign a case to themselves locally and not realize it until later

Nice! Why not a TUI instead of a Web UI?

With many more people working on them and paid to do so.
An IDE or a browser have a huge number of failure points.
Just starting up initiates large numbers of complex operations, file I/O, processing, database, graphics, platform specific operations, what not. They are in a way OS of their own.
Comparing a CLI application, that's scope is tiny compared to a full-blown IDE or a browser, is absurd!
