Most project management systems have methods for dealing with checklists, this is definitely not what slack is designed to do no matter how much they market it as a "productivity tool"

So if you're not using something for project management first you need one of those, but just about everyone does, and once you have one you can start using it's checklist features

Then it depends on what that specific software offers, but even if it doesn't have a true feature for creating "templatized checklists" which I assume people want so they can repeat the same list, most have duplication functionality so you can just create one as a template and duplicate it as needed.

Is there a way to use checklists in Confluence in a way that's not terrible? My team has a checklist we go through regularly and have to use Confluence for this sort of thing. While you can make checklists in there, we can't find a way to make the check marks ephemeral. Every single time someone checks an item it updates and saves the page. We also can't find a "clear all" button. So every time we go through the checklist someone has to manually uncheck every single item, or forget and just leave some checked for the next time.

The best option I've found is to hack in a little bookmarklet to uncheck all of the items with a click. It works for now, but I've done this to fix other Atlassian annoyances in the past and they usually churn the html enough that the scripts regularly need to be updated.

A disposable piece of paper and an ink pen? Confluence seemed to have a PDF export button so I assume it's possible.
