#2Seems interesting! Thinking of trying the free account once I get some spare time this week. Anyone here have experience with it?

#3Obligatory xkcd: https://xkcd.com/927/
But also, I applaud this effort at simplifying workflows, recognizing how difficult it is to program around productivity where everyone seems to have a different way of doing things :)

#4A decade or so, I did _everything_ in emacs. I was never more productive and I attribute it partially to the sort of flow that Legend seems to be trying to make.
Smartphones are what killed it for me. As I switched to using my smartphone + tablet more, it broke my emacs setup. I'm still trying to get it back.

#5Lots of competitors in this space it seems. I had a similar idea, a todo list + calendar app listed below, but it's interesting to see ideas converging on the idea of timeboxing your tasks.
Ever since Cal Newport wrote Deep Work, it seems like everyone wants to get on the deep work productivity train. I wonder who will win eventually though.

#6Interesting approach! Building an "all-in-one" workflow tool is difficult because as the feature list grows the app becomes bloated with user-facing features in form of buttons, dropdowns etc.
It's cool to see a new design approach where user gets just about what they need at the time.
I'm building yet another workflow tool but with NLP doing the heavy lifting for the user. https://acreom.com
Excited to see where this all goes.

Slight typo in the parent comment should be www.getartemis.app, an extra "w" snuck in. I have now knowledge of the product but was curious to see it.

#9I started an account, but felt it wasn't very compelling to actually get started using it. I've synchronized my email and calendar, but it isn't jumping out at me how this will be superior to my current workflow (I use Things and Calendar on MacOS/iOS, and they integrate very dumbly but well enough).
At the risk of sounding dumb, what is this supposed to offer that my workflow doesn't have? I see it can support contacts and files as well, but I'm not sure if/why I'd need that. I have all of that on MacOS/iOS already, so when I add contacts or references to files it'll come from iCloud or whatever. That's fine for me. Is this for people with more disparate and less integrated systems? Am I missing out on something?
The main appeal to me is having task lists working more like documents; Things doesn't support this and it's fairly inflexible in that regard. I do wish I could plan projects and take notes a little more freely in there. But I'd also worry that having this freedom might be a distraction, too.

I suspect you are being downvoted because this isn't really related to standards.
