Every year, I go on a hunt for new #ToDoApps. There are dozens of them, which is already a sign that developers have yet to get it right. Most are too fussy. The only one I ever actively liked was “Put Things Off”, which had just two buttons: mark a task as completed or defer till tomorrow. Does anyone have recommendations? Today I came across Teux Deux by @swissmiss, which is the best yet. Do It Tomorrow is also good, but doesn’t seem to be maintained anymore.

Thinking out loud:

What I want from a todo system are

• ability to break down a task at any point into subtasks (and automatically track completion)
• dependence between tasks i.e. ability to say Task X depends on Task N which depends on Tasks C and D
• easy keyboard manipulation, no mouse dependence
• plaintext or near-plaintext storage
• priorities
• contexts
• being FOSS and local
• (nice to haves:) tags, recurring tasks
