Instead of thinking in terms of "list items" think in terms of... days. There is only so much that can be done in a day but it is very reassuring to see just at a glance what was actually done. Also, this makes never-ending lists pruning super easy and peaceful - "if this item has been carried over for a month and I haven't touched it then it means it's not needed". And all I use for this is gedit (which is notepad.exe with syntax highlight if you so desire) and have the .txt files sync to my Nextcloud instance. (Note: So far I use it only for personal projects mixed with day-to-day chores.)
