I should see if I bothered writing down /why/ I bounced off of #OmniFocus 3 and settled on #Things (#ThingsApp? ugh. fucking cutesy anti-search-friendly names) years ago.
Cuz I sort of want to try OF4, but not if it retains whatever core issues I had with it, which meant Things (with its polished-but-limited feature set) was still better for my needs.
(Things is still fantastic, but dev is glacial & team clearly doesn't care about addressing the glaring UX issues that it does have…)
@bitprophet I didn't like Things for reasons I can't even remember and am using OF. However, I'm finding it overly complicated for my uses. I was exploring whether I could get what I need out of Apple Reminders (I don't think so) or maybe Notion.
@cwalkatron Apple does seem to keep adding legit useful new features to their own apps in this space (Reminders, Calendar, Notes) but every time I switch back to those they inevitably fall behind in ways I don't like, ha.
OF's complexity was definitely one reason I bounced off; still haven't found those notes of mine but ISTR that features it had which Things didn’t, were frustratingly "busy” to deal with.
