The tags are borrowed from the taskpaper format. I didn't utilize it here, but tags can also have values like @due(2023-01-17) I think most users would prefer

I think most users would prefer a more structured graphical view, especially on mobile. But having a less structured text mode would be nice.
I personally prefer working (mostly) in plain text, then rendering graphical views of the text. Plaintext-press is a view that formats, linkifies and filters the original text file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1g5qrmfinno8a5j/patagonia.taskpaper https://www.dropbox.com/s/1g5qrmfinno8a5j/patagonia.taskpape...
I envision other views like a calendar view or even a map view.
The reason I prefer plain text is because I find it faster if I can just use the keyboard without clicking/dragging etc. Search, copy-paste, etc are easier, too. And you can use your favorite text editor (like Vim).
Although I did all the planning in text, I actually also had folders of non-text files where I saved pdf/png files of tickets, receipts, order confirmations, scans, etc.
