I’ve been using Planka (https://planka.app/) for years, to manage my to-do lists and other general lists of things (like gifts given, movies I want to watch and so on). But it’s been ages since I looked around for other, better apps. I really like the kanban board / trello approach they use as the lists are easy to maintain, add items to, and I can see the whole list in one glance.

I don’t need fancy stuff (teams features, sharing, advanced triggers or other automation). It’s just for me, running on my home server. Apps should be FOSS and installable via docker, ideally. I’ve looked at a few of the apps on selfh.st ( https://selfh.st/apps/?search=to-do ) but nothing stood out as really interesting.

Any apps you think of as new and interesting in this area?

Thanks!

EDIT: I’ve installed Vikunja and I’m giving it a try. So far, it was super easy to install and get started with. We’ll see how it looks after a few days, but thanks all for the ideas shared here. 👋🙂

    I’m sorry but this is kind of a wtf to me. What’s wrong with a text file? I thought I was being fancy by using org mode, which is just a text file with some markup. If you want to be really fancy you could use a bug tracker. fossil-scm.org has a built in one that I might try sometime.

      Nothig is wrong with a textfile if it works for you. The todo-list apps and time tracking apps just offer easily accessable features like projects, tags, subtasks, maybe some sync festures and import features from some calender or something. So you don’t have to build a system to organize your stuff yourself.

      Maybe people aren’t all the same and some people like this gs to look nice, be organised in certain ways, be able to synch, check things off with a click of a button. Nothing is wrong with a text file. I use Sublime Text often times, but not everyone is the same.
