I’ve been a paying Todoist customer for many years. For some reason, they steadfastly refuse to introduce blocking/blocked by flags.
It seems so strange to me to do all the hard work of allowing arbitrarily nested projects and tasks, sub-tasks, labels, complex filters and collaboration, but then not do dependencies. Imo dependencies is the big difference between something you can use on complex projects, and a “mere” to-do list - even one with nested projects, labels, filters, whatever.
I thought that perhaps I wanted a Gantt chart tool and spent a couple of months going down that route. At least in my experience, though, what I actually wanted was just some way to establish a DAG - I didn’t even necessarily need a way to visualise it, just the ability to group and filter on it.
Vikunja looks interesting - open source, self-hosted and supports dependencies/relations. No iOS mobile client at this time, though.
