Sometimes I take a break from my real to-do list to just randomly click around on Micro.blog until something annoys me, then fix it. These little things are easy to overlook, but enough of them taken together make a nice difference.

@manton I love this idea! The ārealā to-do items are important, of course, but nothing beats this sort of regular āweed-pullingā for keeping the code updates fresh and relevant.
@fgtech @pimoore @simonwoods @Gaby I guess I owe everyone a real explanation of my to-do lists⦠After years with formal systems ā OmniFocus, etc. ā I now take an ephemeral approach. I know the big things to work on and have notes about them, but every week I start with a fresh list for what feels important right now. If it takes longer than a week, I repeat until itās done or no longer feels important. YMMV. š
@pimoore Good point, I hadnāt thought of that comparison. I love the idea of bullet journaling but havenāt tried to go all-in on that approach.
@pimoore Iāve used bullet journaling method, very effective in a law office where you must track deadlines, push to and from a backlog and break things into managable tasks. I use a similar approach now just using an Outlook task list, integrates better w/ my e-mail and cross-platform reminders. Unfortunately I cannot completely push stuff off that doesnāt feel important; clients and courts tend to feel very differently than me!
@manton the new behavior on iOS when adding a link is so good. My biggest complaint used to be how hard cursor placement is.
