Pros

  • Notion or ClickUp. Both do vertical lists, brain dumps, drag-and-drop, and automations. ... ClickUp's more structured. Both work on Android + Windows. Way better than current Trello setup.
  • A product like ClickUp has already solved for a whole host of task and project management problems including subtasks, task associations/dependencies, project workflows, reporting, etc. It does it in a standard and consistent way that an...

  • Looks like ClickUp and Slack had a baby!

  • I stopped using Joplin, ClickUp and Evernote and moved everything into Obsidian.
  • Latest release, same ongoing performance issues. I recently submitted a ticket to ClickUp for what is essentially a memory leak issue. Instead of looking into the issue. They have me “clear cache, reload, and if that doesn’t do it, reins...

ClickUp's good for this bc their free Gantt view handles dependencies well and keeps tasks/docs/chat in one place.
