Yeah it’s kinda the opposite of “New interface, old implementation.”

Which I learned from https://henrikwarne.com/2024/01/10/tidy-first/

On ticktick you can make a task like “cook dinner at 6pm” and it will auto set the reminder to be at 6pm.

I’d love that for tasks.org but like you said I can maybe implement it sever side :)

I love tasks.org on Android but God I wish they’d add some NLP to parse out times. That’s the one thing I miss from other apps. IIRC The issue in GitHub basically says that there isn’t an easy library to do it with right now.

It’s so annoying to me that I’m considering trying to make a server side app to do this. Just pull the caldav and parse the titles and set the due date. Can’t be that hard right?

It also helps a lot if you set the IP/domain manually so it doesn’t always have to talk to the relay first.

Do you know if it’s possible to use Vikunja as a frontend for next cloud tasks? It does it have some extra sauce on top of caldav?

I just left a little while ago but it was great there today!

Really happy with some of the talks and got to chat with a few people.
