Jira and mails marked as unread until i have worked through them haha :)

My system is people asking me when stuff will be done

Yall gonna hate me,

But teams planner planner is super neat since you can use buckets. And others can use it too.

I honestly don't hate teams. It's pretty neat once you get mildly used to it!

A little notebook I carry around with me

Todo.txt

And also

Calendar.txt

Obsidian with tasks and kanban Plugin. Open them side by side

That's the fun part, I don't!

(okay maybe a little bit of Jira)

Service Now.

If it's not a ticket it's not a task that needs doing.

Don't complain to me, that is what the company policy says.

People ask me to do shit and I do it... unless someone asks me to do something else before I'm done.

emacs org-mode

Polarion. Wouldn't recommend it but it's what my employer wants me to use.

For personal stuff, I use a private MediaWiki instance (same software that runs Wikipedia) as my external brain.

Pen and paper lol

Whichever the project manager set up for the team

Airtable. It's like Trello on steroids. Extremely flexible but you have to set it up all yourself.

A personal wiki or a text file, depending on the place. Would be nice to have some compact non invasive ticket system, but I've never seen one.

I've used literal card decks and GTDish pen and paper systems when there was more demanding need on tracking things. They're effective.

I use jira software for task management! It’s just me on the team, so it’s maybe a bit overkill, but I’ve found scrum / sprints to be massively helpful in prioritizing important work.

It sucks jira is in the cloud, but I’m yet to find an open source scrum system with the same features. Taiga.io comes close, but i don’t yet have a reason to switch; i’ve been using Jira for two years with no issues.

TickTick

https://ticktick.com/features

It's what Wunderlist used to be like before Microsoft bought them and buggered it up, but keeps getting improvements.

We use Asana. At least it's fast and responsive.

Microsoft ToDo. It works well with the GTD method.

Nothing worked for me until I designed my own planner. I like to take things one week at a time so every Friday afternoon, I print out enough sheets for the next week on semi-A4 paper, folded and stapled to a semi-A5 booklet.

One full page for each day with:

• Compact visual schedule of the day with a time grid (hours on the y-axis, 10s of minutes on the x-axis) and recurring events pre-printed
• "Today" box to write down reminders and tasks that don't go on a time grid
• Section to jot down miscellaneous thoughts and ideas
• Right half of the page entirely for a journal entry

Front cover has the weekly overview and back cover has upcoming and assorted tasks.

No monthly calendar, any entry that needs to persist for longer than a week or so goes in a separate hardcover A5 journal that is usually in my bag.

Teams boards (shared to dos)

Planner (personal lists)

Writing it down on a sticky note (priority)

Servicetitan Task Management (ugh, not a huge fan but required).

Monday (shared and I really like this one but it’s only for a particular dept’s needs).

Markdown files and Logseq https://logseq.com/ as the front end. I've been using Mardown for over 10 years, and it's worked for me. Work uses JIRA, but I keep my own notes and copy in them in as necessary.

Post-Its and flagged Slack messages if I ever remember to check those

~/scratch.txt in my text editor of choice opened automatically on startup with a keyboard shortcut to show/hide it

And GitHub issues for collaboration

I track everything private and professional on Notion.

I have dedicated databases for

• tasks, divided by type (reminders, activities, chores), by domain (job, household, politics, writing etc etc), by client, by status
• calls and meetings I have to set up
• credits and debits I have open
• classes and workshops I'm hosting

I've got various text files in Markdown format.

I also use a small CLI program to loosely manage them. Basically, it just creates a new file in a predetermined folder and opens it in my text editor, which I've bound to a global shortcut, so it's just one keypress for me to start jotting something down.
Well, and then it also allows searching through all note files and things like that.

Jira

Taskwarrior, tried lots and lots of ones but always come back to Taskwarrior. It just works the way my brain does, and has tons of features that I actually use because they are intuitive and easy to remember how to.

If you're a terminal weirdo like me I'd recommend Taskwarrior

Outlook. It's obviously shit but it notifies me of stuff which is all I need.

https://tenor.com/view/brooklyn-nine-nine-rosa-diaz-i-just-forget-stuff-like-a-cool-person-forgeting-things-gif-22002978

In the past I've used Spice, RT, Jira at work. Freshdesk free works for home. Also a simple bullet list in Google docs.

I use an ipad at work and use ajournal to write down my schedule for each day. I like that it pulls in my outlook items and that is easy to edit- write, erase, drag to another day. I don't like that it's not backed up anywhere so when i lost my iPad anything not done/documented is lost forever. When i get super freaked out about that i take a screenshot.

Standard notes? They got bought out by proton

Jira , mostly. It kind of sucks but it's what we use.

Sublime text for quick notes.

Some people like notion but I often find it redundant with jira, and it's often write-only memory.

Caldav with decsync and syncthing to synchronize across devices

Taskwarrior
