I am sure this has been debated a lot, but I am just curious about an update in 2022 post covid world where a lot of things have changed to see some thoughts.
I have been a long time user of FacileThings. I LOVE the workflow. It keeps me organized and I am on top of my stuff. It works wonderfully. However, I find the UI so terrible. It is very ugly and it takes a lot of clicks to get anywhere. A bit slow too. The mobile app is useless except for capturing and checking off basic things. Not very strong in my opinion.
I have not tried Nirvana recently because I am so concerned about the lack of development. I feel like it is an app that is somewhat abandoned. Not sure how true it is to GTD but I assume it is.
I just downloaded Things 3. It is a beautiful app. My holdback was always the Mac only interface but now I have a Mac so it is a good viable option for me.
I love the calendar integration in FacileThings. However, I know that per "pure" GTD I probably rely on it too much as the calendar should be for appointments and not tasks that you "want" to do. I am moving to a bit more of a time blocking methodology to protect my calendar where I create some space for me to work on things but default back to my task system for that process.
But I just wanted to see if I can get some general feedback on the comparison of the 3 in 2022 from someone that is in an office, sometimes working from home, often traveling, and looking to balance all tools with personal and business into one tool. Mobility is important but I always carry a laptop or IPAD so it is not always from a phone.
Thanks!
