This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. This is more going over what I like about taskwarrior rather than a comprehensive guide, please check https://taskwarrior.org/docs/start/ for a more comprehensive quickstart. Taskwarrior is Free and Open Source Software that manages your TODO list from the command line. It is flexible, fast, and unobtrusive. It does its job then gets out of your way.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. I formatted my Samsung Galaxy after updating to Android 16. Now I install my keyboard of choice and talk on HPR while making the initial configuration as I prefer, with focus on the topics: Why I prefer FK (pleasant ux and interface, good dose of personalization, offline) Select all, copy and paste directly from the keyboard (long press A, C and V, respectively) downsides (I think I didn't say them on the show): not the best swipe-to-type, voice-to-text and prediction of correction, specially if not in English Provide feedback on this episode.
