#things3 — Public Fediverse posts

And don’t get me started on #ToDo apps. I’ve tried #Todoist, #Reminders and now I’m back to #Things3. I’ve bought it for #macOS and #iOS (I don’t use #iPadOS enough to warrant it), but Reminders has come a long way and it just works everywhere. With #iOS27 on the way, is it worth using stock apps?

@brownhamer @frankps Another app I use a lot is the excellent to do app #Things3. Haven't found a good replacement yet, at least not based on the #GTD philosophy https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/to-do-app-following-gtd-philosophy/29234

I’ve fully switched to OmniFocus (The Omni Group) from Things (Cultured Code). The two driving factors were that OF can handle some more complex relationships than can Things; and better external access into OF’s data (in this case through an MCP).

Both are great. Things is perfect for most people. If not for my new needs, I would probably still be there.

Super exciting to see others interested in my “Things 3” CLI for #macOS called “clings”.

My #AI assistant just built me a new kanban page in Mission Control. But not only can I drag product cards through Ideas -> Design -> Build -> Content -> Released for our new products, but each step hooks into #Things3 through CLI and automatically created me tasks, sub tasks for that project.

I’ve tried them all. #Notion, #Todoist, #Things3, #OmniFocus, #Asana, #Trello, #AnyDo, #TickTick. I even built my own todo app once (spoiler: I never finished it). After years of productivity app hopping, I’m back to where I started: a plain text file called todo.txt

Решил все же вернуться обратно с #Vikunja на #Things3 из - за отсутствия уведомлений и невозможности настроить на iOS нормально синхронизирующийся календарь. issue есть на эту проблему, но ему уже лет 5 и наверное он никогда не исправится.

Genuinely curious: what makes #Things3 better than #TickTick? (Besides the fact that T3 doesn't work on Windows and literally doesn't have a free version/tier, I mean.)

@TheMikeBurke I just noticed that only n-1 tasks are being moved via my AppleScripts but all are being tagged. Did you notice similar behaviour with your #Things3 AppleScripts?

Thanks.

I just improved my Things 3 evening tasks automation to preserve reminders on recurring tasks! If you use Things and want your evening tasks to actually remind you (and keep their deadlines), check out my updated AppleScript:

So I've found that, while I have a ton of things in Things, the key to actually doing them is to set a due date

Today I learned about new #task manager: #Superlist.

Looks like #Things3 x #NozbeTeams x #Notion

I use a to do list. I feel like every day I bite off way more than I can chew. I’m obviously not saying “no" enough. Am I scheduling too many big things? Am I doing them the right order? How do I fix this? #productivity #Things3

@grymas_tysiaclecia Ad. Poczta - uważam że #Mimestream jest super aplikacją. Ale to kolejna subskrypcja, a te staram się ograniczać.

Ad. #Things3 - bardzo lubię i używam od paru już lat. Co sprawia, że wysoki koszt wejścia już się zwrócił.

hmmm #things3 is missing a proper api, yes, but perhaps i can #ansible my way out of dealing with other, possible electron, apps 👀
(normally i would update on the host directly but normally nothing unexpected happens, so maybe i could try to trust the ansible way... maybe)

My primary platform is macOS, iOS. My primary #productivity tools are #Things3, #Fantastical, and #Obsidian. I've been a Things3 user for at least four or five years. Maybe more. I'm considering moving to #OmniFocus. Step one is to identify *why* I use a task manager. Here are the reasons, in order.

@unknow Mam #AppleWatch. Poza aplikacjami systemowymi regularnie używam na zegarku także:
- #GentleStreak - jako domyślna aplikacja treningowa (oprócz jazdy na rowerze, gdzie wolę systemową apkę i oprócz treningu siłowego)
- #Workout - trening siłowy
- #Grocery - listy zakupów

Mniej regularnie:
- #Clic - sterowanie systemem #Sonos z zegarka
- #Overcast
- #Things3
- #Timery - nakładka na #Toggl
- #WorkOutDoors - jako nawigacja jeśli nie mam telefonu
- #Runna - biegowe plany treningowe

TIL that in #Things3 on #Mac you can hide/show sidebar with 2-finger horizontal scroll gesture on trackpad.

So convenient ! 🤯

This is such a great feeling. #things3

I do start my working days for some weeks now by going through daily check-in #checklist. It contains:

1. Check the calendar

2. What is already on my today view in #Things3?

3. Clarify what's in the #gtd #Things3 inbox

4. Check e-mail

Today I realised whenever I put something in #Things3 to "This Evening", it's just not gonna happen lol.

It's more of a "get out of my way, I ain't gonna do that task" solution for me

@devondundee Thanks for the write up, currently tracking habits in #things3 checklist which is ok, but probably not the best way to do track habits over time and Definitely look into this more.

One feature that has been missing from my favorite todo app, @things, has been the ability to automatically move tasks to the “Evening” section when they appear on the “Today” page. With the power of #shortcuts, we can fix this! #Things3

I’m thinking the new, and comparatively minor, Things3 feature allowing the setting of text size makes a big difference

@abhayakara I use #Things3 by @things more than 5 years.
It’s highly recommended #GTD software what uses end to end encrypt method with Things Cloud service 👍🏻

A super productive day so far: got this month's newsletter written and posted; sent resources out to everyone who registered for the webinar I ran yesterday; smashed a bunch of other tasks in #Things3.

And now for my coaching supervision call. Then, hopefully, a cold drink on a warm balcony. ☀️

I caught myself saying, "#Things3 isn't working as well for me lately as a #TaskManager."

Maybe that has less to do with #Things3 and more to do with my having lost my habit of reviewing my tasks and projects first thing each morning!

Sometimes, the issue isn't the tool. Sometimes, the issue is the process.
