- nstart 10y agoAs someone who's gone from to-do list tool to todo list tool, I have now settled on paper and pencil. I have a little notebook I carry around with me. Every evening I jot down my "shippables" for the next day into a new page. I have a separate page for long term goals like "get a gardener over" that I review constantly. And that just works really. Kind of gtd and part of another method I can't recall :D

- godot 10y agoFor personal to-do lists, I use http://www.toodledo.com/ http://www.toodledo.com/ which is great for having many options (occur every month, every 2 weeks, last Wednesday of the month, etc.), and syncs between mobile and web. For work, I basically use pen and paper or slack reminders or self chat.

- ishbits 10y agoI've settled on Todoist. It's not awesome but does the job especially for recurring tasks. But more and more for work I've found myself using a little notebook or a small stack of index cards.
- RooN3y 10y agoI also use this. I mostly like how you can set up "projects" and invite people to the list. So I have work projects but also things like "Shopping list" which I share with my partner and we both use the phone app.
- tonteldoos 10y agoI asked a question relating to tools for a number of things, including to-do lists earlier this week, and a lot of people gave some very very useful answers: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12794292 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12794292 Myself: Currently any.do and/or a notebook, but looking to move to a wiki, or org-mode.

- eivarv 10y agoI have a file called TODO.diff, which leverages my editor's syntax highlighting. An example would be: ! A header (PURPLE) *** Important *** (SOLID BLUE BACKGROUND) Text (WHITE) + A finished task (GREEN) - An unfinished task (RED) --- (HORIZONTAL RULER)
- frou_dh 10y agoThings.app (macOS / iOS) https://culturedcode.com/ https://culturedcode.com/ The word "simple" gets thrown around a lot in software marketing and GitHub readmes. That said, having used Things extensively, it truly strikes me as having the perfect balance of simplicity vs features for a todo/GTD system.

- shanecleveland 10y agoI made tasklater.com to keep long-term tasks off my day-to-day list. And I made tuduli.com to manage day-to-day todos, since I was emailing myself todos anyway. So this keeps them all in one email.
- ericzawo 10y agoI have never found a better to do list app than http://dynalist.io http://dynalist.io Before that I used Workflowy for ~4 years. Dynalist improves on Workflowy in virtually every way, and its creators listen to their userbase closely.[1] 1. https://trello.com/b/z0HxDPNo/dynalist-roadmap https://trello.com/b/z0HxDPNo/dynalist-roadmap

- aq3cn 10y agoSurprisingly, no one here seems to be using white board and marker or just sticky note on desk. While I do use todo.txt or Task (CLI) but I also rely on sticky notes or whiteboard for keeping my Todo list always in front of me.
