   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.

• Using Ticktick for GTD, but dislike that subtasks to projects show up as orphaned tasks if they have a separate due date or stage tag than main task/project. Is there an app that allows subtask due dates/tags according to the GTD system but still shows them as grouped under parent task?

• How is everyone tracking software expirations/renewals and recurring maintenance tasks?

  We just redid our process about six months ago and we are now using rememberthemilk.com for ours. We setups recurring tasks for each item. They have flexible reminder options like text and email that can go to different people at varying times. When we complete a task it automatically re-schedules itself for the next year. We have some that renew ever 2 or 3 years and it can accommodate that as well. The free... Source: over 2 years ago

• 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. It is paid, but the cost is not far off a pint of beer these days and you can customise it however you want (you could think of it as an investment in terms of the value it brings into your life vs the cost).

• 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: 11 months ago
