Have you guys tried TasksApp by @nigeldgreen

It's a Task Manager/To Do online app that works really well, is clean and clear, mainly uses a single-screen, easy to use and fast.

No fuss Task Management. Using it for Libreture work.

@kevinbeynon @nigeldgreen well I *just* finished setting up a command-line task manager (TaskWarrior) - otherwise...

@donblanco @nigeldgreen

A command line one!?

Dude! Hardcore.

I can't believe it's not called 'Su-Do'.

@donblanco @nigeldgreen

Will look at this for my laptop. That would be cool.

@donblanco @kevinbeynon

I used taskwarrior before I built out tasksapp. The CLI bit really appealed to me (and the stats!), but it was ultimately harder to just do what I really needed to (track tasks without needing to tend the system too much). I reckon it would have got quicker once I really got it in my fingers, but was just too much resistance for me to really click with it.

@nigeldgreen @kevinbeynon yeah, I'm on a bit of a CLI-binge right now. I'm not really sure why exactly. Tasks, ebook server, zsh, kakoune (text editor), sc-im (spreadsheets) - all inside a Quake-style dropdown using Tilix...

@donblanco @nigeldgreen @kevinbeynon I'm a taskwarrior fan too, although I also use taskd to synchronize multiple devices (even my android phone via the TW app). Nightmare to set up, butter-smooth once done.

Back on-topic (and forgive if this is already done...) but *please* include a wait-until / show-from field. In my experience nearly all hosted task platforms don't have this, but it's essential. No point seeing all 300 of my tasks if 120 aren't relevant now...

@gwmngilfen yeah, I just tried setting up taskserver - wow. What a clusterfuck that turned into. I've given up on that one for now...

@donblanco hit me up if you feel like giving it another shot, i'm sure I can dredge up some notes and/or sample configs from my server ;)

@gwmngilfen @donblanco @kevinbeynon

tasksapp has full support for dating tasks. Default behaviour where a date is set is to show it in your agenda as 'coming soon' a couple of days before it is due, then move it into the 'do now' section on the date you specify.

Will be adding a feature soon so users can set their visibility prefs for all dated tasks.

@nigeldgreen @donblanco @kevinbeynon ooh, nice. Now I want to go register, even though I already have a to do system set up ;)
