@aaronpk Yeah, what I’ve settled on for tasks in OmniFocus is three binary axes: priority/not-priority, due/not-due, up-next/backlog. So far so good. 👍

Interesting. What's the difference between priority/not-priority and up-next/backlog?

@aaronpk I like your custom filter, but I think I have to expand the due-date horizon slightly, since even when something is due today I often need a day or two to do the work to complete it.

Yeah good point! I've been looking at the week view up until now so I'll probably expand the filter to maybe 3-5 days.

@aaronpk @cygnoir I’d be very interested in how you differentiate p1 from p2 and p3! I’ve never had a solid rubric for that.

Right now p1 is the only one I feel strongly about. I'll see if I keep using p2 and p3 as I described.

@aaronpk This addresses something I have been struggling with for quite a while! Do you refrain from adding priority to tasks that are due on a particular day, or do you still add priority?

We'll see how it pans out, but right now I don't think I will add a priority when there's a due date since the combined dashboard view gives me a list of both due dates and prioritized tasks.

@aaronpk the todoist custom filter views are super useful. the default "this week" view in todoist shows me saturday and sunday so I added a custom filter view that just did m-f and that helped a lot in organizing things

I realized I was setting arbitrary due dates on my todo list as a way to prioritize tasks so they'd show up in order of importance, but it turns out that's a terrible technique.

I just did a major refactoring of my Todoist and now I'm using priority 1/2/3 tags for that, and due dates only when a task is really due that day.

I'm still figuring out exactly how to use the priorities, here's what I've got so far:

• p1 - this is top priority, I should do things in this list as soon as possible
• p2 - things that I want top of mind, but can wait until things in p1 are done
• p3 - sort of a catch-all when I want something to bubble up a bit quicker than if it has no priority tag

I also switched my main view in Todoist to a custom filter that shows me:

• tasks due today
• priority 1 tasks not due today
• overdue tasks

I'm going to try to stick to this view as my primary view instead of clicking on the "Today" tab.

Disappointed that Ghost created a custom posting API instead of adopting Micropub, which is a W3C recommendation. It’s okay to have Ghost-only APIs as long as you start with standards as a baseline. Now we have fragmented client apps.

I just saw that too :-( I understand that Micropub doesn't cover 100% of their use cases, but it would have been a great opportunity to improve the spec to cover more ground too!
