dipped my toe into the freemium app world again for the first time in a while after #TasksOrg proved not well-suited for making a repeatable checklist, and god damn, it's almost as bad as using a Windows box or watching commercial TV after a few years away 馃あ

I'm deep into a bug scrub on the #TasksDotOrg github because I've gone all-in on using it for to-do list management, and having been around this mulberry bush several times now on Android, just let me say:
* holy fuck, building a to-do list app (which can use CalDAV as a back-end no less) is REALLY COMPLICATED
* Google Calendar Reminders must have been specced by an industrial design genius with a budget, because the UX was fucking *perfect* for me in 2018, but then I de-Googled 馃拃

on the topic of calendar+task management, one component I'm still missing is a desktop #CalDAV solution which either does both, or is composed of two apps which do #calendaring and #tasksorg tasks.
I believe my Android solution will work for my needs, but it'd be better to be able to update both calendar and tasks from desktop too, especially if I ever lose access to my phone.
the issue is that CalDAV support is rare and CalDAV-with-proper-tasks is rarer.
