Task creator here.

How do you evaluate each tool? What do you miss on each that keeps you switching between them?

I understand you, though. I keep switching between Firefox and Chrome-based browsers because each has its pros and cons...

Passing parameters kinda sucks, someone else made a comparison in another thread about named parameters and how easy it is to pass and define them in Just. Love taskfile otherwise

Input parameter with - - is not really intuitive. It works, but the just way to handle input parameters is way more easier to remember

Personally I disagree, I think `--` is very intuitive.

Maybe it isn't super common knowledge, but `--` is in line with the POSIX argument parsing convention[0] and is used by many (most?) GNU/BSD tools and many other tools such as `kubectl`. This StackOverflow thread[1] also has some information about it.
