Interesting. I’ve found myself using the new iOS 13 task app in a similar format to how Nareen uses Asana. Going kanban is a good idea. Though admittedly I run out of tasks fairly often and it not easy coming up with new stuff always.
Anyone ever seen a repository of tasks? I’m imagining finding something I’m interested in and subscribing to the daily tasks for that topic?

This is such a cool idea!
I think things like Awesome X lists for X technology to learn[0] or Fullstack Python are examples of this, and obviously for cooking/recipes this is a solved problem, but the idea of a github-like fork/clone system for general public todo lists is really motivating

> For over a decade, he's been recording quotes, and images, blog posts, and articles in a digital commonplace so he can always find them later if he needs them.
Interesting, I have been doing an app for this use case for a while. I have to ship it one day.

I once had a phone call scheduled with Naveen. He missed it twice and finally made it to a third time. Not making any conclusions here, but just take such articles with a grain of salt and do what works best for you.
I found Asana a little overwhelming for my individual needs. I like the public Pinboard feature. I've been using Bookmark OS (https://bookmarkos.com) to save bookmarks and organizing my notes
Also, recently i've found myself saving a PDF version of webpages more and more in order to archive the content. I really dislike - no, i hate - PDFs...but trying to archive html content is annoying nowadays. Ok, so if i use wget or curl or even manually "save as..." from a web browser, the snapshot comes with so much junk - a simple html file balloons into a larger-than-should-be file (and associated folder) because it has all the content plus loads of javascript and other crap. When i want to archive stuff, i only want the content, the metadata (title, author, publication date, etc.), and nothing else - maybe the imagery if its essential to the content. It did seem that for a time - maybe a few years ago - web page articles did have CSS that stripped away some/most of the ad crap when you print - or at least "save to PDF" - which made downloads/archives of the content at least a little smaller, if not at least cleaner to view...but, not seeing much of that anymore.
