I downloaded it and tried it and I'm not super interested in it. I've tried a number of different task/to do tools over time. What's working for me now is the following Google Doc that works as follows. If today is 4/10/22:

4/10/22

>Write Article

>Go Shopping

* Milk

* Cereal

>Pay Plumber

If I only paid the plumber that day and bought cereal, on the next day you'd have:

4/10/22

>Pay Plumber

>Go Shopping

* Cereal

4/11/22

>Write Article

>Go Shopping

* Milk

That's basically the whole thing. Of course there's a standard calendar app too. After a few months it gets long and you roll over into a new doc. I can always scroll to the bottom and I have a nice diary of things I accomplished. I don't know how you could improve the implementation over a google doc. The good thing about a Google Doc is if I get stuck on some todo I can brainstorm right in the doc. That's the hardest part with a to do system. Some To Dos stay on there for a while and need a lot of context, creativity and brainstorming to get done.
