Fully agree. Have come to similar conclusions with time.

Nowadays the only tool I'm using is https://workflowy.com. It's basically an infinitely nested list that you can expand / collapse or zoom into. Extremely fast to dump items into and delete afterwards.

I use it as a cache or stack for my immediate more complicated developer tasks. Once something's done - delete it.

Here's a referral link if you'd like to get me (and yourself) more free items: https://workflowy.com/invite/200f24b.lnx
