I couldn’t agree more with your point about how dedicated, single use apps are better at their respective roles than multi purpose apps.

[toranshaw]

I'm firmly in with the Unix design philosophy, which states that apps should do only one or two things, and do them well... which is one of the reasons I'm not too keen on 'jack of all trades' apps like Notion.

I have Obsidian as one of my 3 core apps, for my permanent notes and the drafting stages of my long-form writing. The other two are Logseq, for my fleeting notes and outlining, and Todoist.

Also... first! 😆

It's taken a couple years, and many failed experiments along the way, but I've finally come to appreciate your approach to using single purpose apps in your workflow.
I purged my Todoist of everything I had collected that wasn't really a task and offloaded them into other services. I didn't realize how much less stress I would have when my todo list was no longer a constant reminder that "I need to clean up this mess".
Seeing each app as a part in a much larger machine has indeed made it more enjoyable to work with each tool.

I also see the benefit of flexibility with this approach. When a new app comes on market or my current one loses support, it'll be much easier to swap out the individual part then it will be to learn how to apply my workflow to a new multipurpose service.

Thanks for your content. I appreciate you Carl.

Hi Carl, I see your new book is developing. I hope you include how you write and monitor your goals, and how you link them to projects (Evernote) and tasks (Todoist). Thank you!

[canadusa]

Hi Carl! I have been implementing many of your workflow ideas and now strongly considering Ulysses. You mentioned using word as well for support when writing.I know from all your videos that you are in the Apple ecosystem. I’m wondering if you have chosen Word over Pages for a reason. I am struggling with my choices of writing tools. I spent hours exploring and setting up workflows. I have looped around to Todoist just because your workflow with Todoist is simple, clean and appreciate all your explanations🙏🏻

What do you recommend for windows, chromebook and android phones?

[josggar]

Hi Carl. I have a question, Is there a way to implement time sector system in the things 3 app?

[Mike-zzkz]

I use a bluetooth keyboard when I have something long to type on my phone.

Bit waffly Carl. You hardly show the Ulysses screen or how you actually organised things within it. The part of Ulysses I am finding annoying is not being able to rename the drafts. More show, less tell might have been more useful.
