In case you lost it - a #link to the #eSIM#donation guide. Even if you feel sick and powerless, you can at least do this. And even if you really, really can't #donate, you can always at least #share this and #remind others.
Besides Trello (with automation) and TickTick, does anyone know of a quick task manager program for IOS/web, desktop client for Windows good but not necessary, that supports natural language date parsing in the subject? So if I write "feed cats tonight at 5pm" it will create a task called "feed cats" and set a reminder for this evening at 5:00pm automatically? Ticktick does this and works great, just curious as to if there's anything better. Tried a couple like Google Tasks and Taskade and they don't. #tasks#reminders#todo
Me: Grumble grumble grumble, Emacs with WSL disappears when I change networks or when my laptop does this weird thing where it disconnects all USB stuff and reconnects a second later. So then I have to exit bash and then do wsl --shutdown && wsl on the Powershell line.
Me: Grumble grumble grumble, VS Code doesn't have an operating system inside of it that I can live in, for the sort of slightly most part, so I'd have to use other apps for reminders, calendars, to-do, all that.
Gosh I just need to use something like One-Note if it has built-in reminders or something, or get really good at the Mac and use Notes + Reminders. But Org-mode and capture templates and the agenda are just so... Tantalizing. Grumble grumble grumble, while everyone else uses Logseq, Rewind, and Obsidian.

Why, oh, why, does #Thunderbird still implement focus-stealing task/date #reminders on #macos ? When I'm typing #emails and am in my flow, it is immensely frustrating to have the cursor taken away from the mail editing window to focus on the #reminder. Is there any way to turn this behavior off, other than not using the reminder system at all ? It has got to be my number 1 bugbear for #Thunderbird. Not surprising why people move to webmail clients instead.

If I type in something like “on Monday” in a #iOS#Reminders to-do, it allows me to add the date – which I want – but keeps the “on Monday” in the to-do.
