I'm not a fan of Scrum as it's a rigid process that doesn't follow the agile manifesto. I do like using Github project boards either in a continuous Kanban fashion or even weekly sprints. The contents are self-managed by the team doing the work. Its purpose is basically to allow anyone to look at it and see what the team is doing and what recent progress has been made, or if there are blocked items that need to be resolved. It can prevent micro-management, the alternative is having each team member repeatedly polled by others to get the same information that's already presented there.

Yes. Kanban is the closest methodology that I have found that maps to the spirit of the Agile Manifesto. Kanban and Agile are very harmonious. Scrum is most definitely not "agile" by most definitions. The process of planning and retroactive review are important agile concepts. But scrum has been significantly distorted in most cases to become the antithesis of agile. SAFe is even more a divergence from Manifesto Agile. Maybe it's justified because corporations haven't figure out how to do big corporate things using an agile approach. Toyota is probably the exception, since they basically invented the groundwork for Agile today.
