I’ve been using vim on a daily basis since about 2011, when I started my first job as a systems engineer. The reason that I picked up Vim in the first place was that I was using Linux on a day to day basis (CentOS 5, if you wanted to know), across many different servers - and I wanted to edit files over ssh on those servers. While Nano was fine, and I could use it, it was a colleague using Vim that encouraged me to give it a go. I’ve been using it ever since.
I am so sick and tried of changing task management systems, I will just be using plain .txt files from now on.
In the last 10 years, I have tried so many different systems for organising my work and my personal life and yet I’ve not been able to keep using one of them after a few weeks or months. After all this time I think I’ve finally come to the realisation that they all suffer from the same inadequacies. Before anybody recommends me their favourite, here is a list of apps I’ve tried; RememberTheMilk (~2011), Trello, Google Keep (~2015), Google Tasks (~2022), Todoist (~2018 I think, but again in ~2023), and of course, because I am developer with a hammer (ie: the ability to write code), I had to write my own - wacky-tracky. I have probably had the most all around success with TaskWarrior (until recently).
