I have gone down this road and tried to use Jira, Trello, etc for project tracking for things other than my job, including hobby dev projects. After decades, I landed on text files in outline form (markdown sometimes for things like design docs). Way less clicks and page loads, way easier to back up, completely not dependent on proprietary/closed-source behaviors. I use them to take meeting notes, plan my projects, track deliverables/action items, jot down ideas for videos I want to make and mod ideas for games I play. Very effective.
