   Extremely powerful todo list manager

   I used Remember the Milk for years, but they were slow to fix bugs and new features hardly ever appeared. Marvin is, as the name says, Amazing. Very powerful 'smart' lists of tasks, searching, customisation. It does take a while to get to grips with the huge range of features.

• Unbundling Tools for Thought

  Hey, I’ve been building that. It’s called A Personal Search Engine: https://apse.io. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Take More Screenshots

  A paid tool in this direction is APSE (https://apse.io) which bills itself as a personal search engine that OCRs intermittent screencaps. I loved the idea, but in practice it lacked polish.

• Gains I'm Seeing from My Second Brain Tool

  Maybe APSE is what you're looking for [1]. A while back the founder sent me a link after one of my blog posts hit HN.

• Struggling with life, infp struggle the most? Please help?

  Again there are many great free ones out there, but my personal recommendation is definitely this one.

• How do you get over the hurdle of desperately wanting to start using a task manager but feel totally overwhelmed and panicked about trying to remember and input all the many things that should go into it, not to mention deciding which one? (AuDHD)

  I have recently realized that there will be no perfect tool you will find just by looking things up. You literally do have to try around w a few apps (or more traditional methods) and see which one you enjoy. It took me a while but I found smth called Amazing Marvin. I love it because it’s very customizable. I think when we try to look for the “perfect” tool, we really are looking for tons of customizability so we... Source: about 1 year ago
