I want to be able to keep track of certain things I (or more accurately, we as a family) need to do. E.g. paint the shed, call the people to clean the roof, pack bags for vacation, etc. It will just be shared between me and my partner. My partner is not super technical but is relatively open-minded to me wanting to do things differently (kicking out netflix in favour of plex, using mealie for recipes, etc..).
We previously used Nextcloud Deck but since switching to Immich I just want to rid of nextcloud entirely. The deck app is still there but doesn't sync anymore (imagine the embarrassment finding out your partner is still trying to use the thing you persuaded her into using but forgot that it broke) I need to find something else.
- It needs to be relatively simple (or able to hideaway complexities)
- Single board is fine, multiple would be nice
- We just do a todo/doing/done flow.
- We really like the 'board' way of working, dragging and dropping a task from doing to done etc
- Tasks need due dates, descriptions, attachments, possibly comments
- native android app, I'm not sure if the state of PWA's is already so far that it would not dink on the spouse approval factor. I remember mealie logging us out so often.
What i've tried / read:
-
kanboard: this seems like the best candidate, but lacks a proper android app. This is a major dealbreaker. There was an android app called khanos but that doesn;t work anymore. I tried WiserBoard but that just seems like an Indian company taking Khanos and removing all attribution - it keeps asking for a shit ton of permissions so I got sketched out and deleted it.
-
focalboard: looks nice, maybe a bit complex.. No android app.
I had my hopes set on kanboard but ehhhhhh
What are others using for this purpose?
I personally found that https://taiga.io hits a sweet spot for me. It's a beautiful app. Not too simple but robust enough to configure. There's at least one good mobile client out there too.
