To do list system to use and invest in

I agree with this. “Dedicated” task managers such as 2Do or Todoist are more useful for “tasks”.

It’s a good idea to step back and think about what your “task management” needs are. There’s a big difference between planning and tracking a project with lots of subtasks, dates, and actions to perform in sequence—versus capturing and tracking an unrelated or loosely-related group of actions. Some of the angst of choosing the software that works best is due to trying to shoehorn the “list of unrelated tasks” scenario into software that was built for the “project management” scenario.
