Not sure if something like this exists but I'd love a project management software (web or native) aimed at solo developers that prioritizes speed and keyboard shortcuts.

Existing tools cater for teams and organizations, so they come with bells and whistles which I don't need. What I'm looking for is something a tad better than notepad: blazing fast way to create an entry and classify it as feature, bug, research etc, add some tags like frontend, backend, UI, etc and add some notes. Obviously there will be a little more like a great search, a way to quickly switch between projects etc but the focus should be on simplicity and speed of use. Ideally pretty much everything should be doable via keyboard. It's ok if it's opinionated and has limited functionality. But as long as core task management features are seamless, I'd be happy.

I'm working on a start-up idea right now and thought the above would be really helpful (own itch). Also low key thinking of building it myself.
