Ohhhhh my god I felt every word you said about having a startup and doing so many smaller things that scheduling every single one is no longer sustainable. I feel...seen 😂. I was starting to think that something was wrong with me until I just grabbed a piece of paper and used that as my to-do, which is basically what this app is. I don't know if I am going to use the app you review here, I'm happy with my piece of paper after trying so many to-do apps, but your words gave me such a relief. I feel is the first time I hear someone from the productivity field say something like this. Thank you😂

This reminds me of the recent movement about going back to Apple Notes for so many people. It looks like traditional task managers aren't good enough to adapt to dynamic work that most of us have been doing these days (i.e., things change, but in the task manager there should be multiple adjustments needed - say re-scheduling, changing priorities, even filters and tags and views and all the bells and whistles need to be adjusted if something becomes less important and something else becomes super important). A basic note list is perfect for this.

This is why a lot of people just moved of to making tasks lists into Obsidian and nothing else.

I think there is something magical when notes, tasks and even calendar has a way to get it in one place. I have been Bullet Journaling for about 5 years now, and I think the reason why it works for me is that it works as a commonplace notebook

I switched to exactly the same process as you after watching a video of Leo babauta about task management. When you think about it, it’s not strange at all to be more productive using a note because you focus more on the task itself than the tool. Using Todoist or other similar apps, you have a natural tendency to fidgeting and tinkering on the app itself and not the tasks. With a plain old white note, you are forced to think which is way more powerful.

a well crafted video 😁

I have recently moved everything to notion. Adopting the same principle you have in this video. Todo list apps are ok if you have a simple life. As soon as you start to add in multiple businesses, projects, meetings etc.. it becomes a full time task just managing tasks.

I do something similar with obsidian and a daily note, but its for like study session specific stuff. Anything i do which is actually important is in todoist like i have a house inspection next thursday etc. I haven't really found anything better thats also cross device plus the free plan is all i need so its free

I've never gotten along with traditional to do apps. I find the lists just grow to the point where it becomes sort of meaningless. I have found that Reflect is a nice place for me to put my tasks. I enter them in my daily note when they pop up, then move them to the day I need to do them. This way there isn't one long list that seems insurmountable. I've been impressed with Craft's task management addition, though I think Reflect still works best for my needs.

[@Sub0x-x40]

lol just stop adding tasks just for the sake of it. I have three tasks today in my todoist

[@jon932]

The blank canvas helps. I think having worked the simple "just write a task" mentality, you notice, "oh maybe I want to write how I got here, or what I'm thinking". While ToDoist has the note within the task, its just not built for that kind of thing. Workflowy helped me realized this, but now I'm migrating to Capacities as it's options really help the connectedness. Tough to move stuff over though.

[@edouardkutter286]

Quite sad, what is the sense of using a coffee brewer to make a cake. Craft is not meant to replace a to do application.

[@aldorodriguez7310]

I think the Journal feature in Logseq might work out for your type of workflow.

[@genefifer6658]

Is Craft becoming more like Amplenote and does it need to get better with calendar and timeblocking? What if Todoist adds a document feature? Will these apps also need more and more project management features like Asana to keep market share? Is Evernote also going in this direction?

[@hussam9433]

in brief to answer you, Nope, not the goodbye time, not even to think about it

[@tompov227]

I like Craft a lot as an app but they collect a ton of data and their privacy practices make them not really a viable choice in my opinion

[@isaacandy97]

I got a refund from them and have switched because privacy concerned me

zzzzzzzzzzz

[@OctavioPaz-n4n]

Moving away from Todoist will be the biggest mistake of your life. Good luck

[@biocajun86]

This is aggressive 😅
