I use Things 3. Not really a strategy beyond a few reoccurring todo's.

I'm not very organized, I just put things in that are important, but not so important that I will surely remember. Or things that will be important later.

One slightly controversial strategy I have is to just delete tasks that sit for too long. There are exceptions of course, but those are rare.

My reasoning is that the longer they sit, the less likely it is they will ever get done, and if they don't get done they are probably not important either. If they do get relevant again at some point, they will resurface organically. Nothing demotivates me more than an endless backlog of largely outdated irrelevant tasks for "someday" that you never ever get to. It works surprisingly well.
