I spoke to Cal for this article though I don't think he used much of our interview. I developed GTD software back in the first as Kinkless when became OmniFocus after I joined Omni for a year.

Today I don't use any "super specialized" tooling for task management. Intentionally. I don't like being wedded to any given app. My tools are Apple Reminders (universal for my family since we're all on Apple devices) and Obsidian (or really just plain text / markdown, accessed currently through obsidian).

Lots of thoughts about all this but in short there were some good ideas I took from GTD (universal capture being the biggest, but that's not really a GTD unique idea) but most of it I've jettisoned.

(my obsidian / markdown usage is basically "take notes, sometimes notes become projects, those projects automatically show up in a dashboard" and mixing notes, content, and tasks organically)

How do your projects “automatically show up in a dashboard”? And where is that dashboard? In Obsidian?

It's undergone some minor changes since this post, but mostly like this: https://mastodon.social/@ethanschoonover/110085453365962807

I'd love to see a blog post about your apple reminders/obsidian setup (or whatever details you'd be willing to provide). I'm currently trying to get an apple reminders + obsidian setup up and running myself!

I second this suggestion!

I remember buying OmniOutliner on my first Mac just so I could try Kinkless.

Can't believe that it's now 17 years ago!
