rofi-org-todo VS org-gtd.el

(note and disclosure: I use a rofi compatible wayland package... and have actually written a rofi plugin to keep me in flow https://github.com/wakatara/rofi-org-todo )

I leave the todos in the daily files (in org super-agenda it gives them context) and then generally have org-roam links if they are related to a project and the person and then use tags like :perso: or :work: and usually a week if they are not scheduled (eg. :w49:), so they are separable in the agenda. This helps me focus on things that are important (also, you can tab to collapse or expand section using origami in super-agenda which helps to focus or not. I do have an inbox.org file for capture (and one called inbox13.org for my mobile device separately since I've had conflicts on Dropbox and iCloud before) though this is more to get stuff out of my head quickly (I'm the author of rofi-org-todo https://github.com/wakatara/rofi-org-todo ) and then I just process the inbox a la Dave Allen and usually put them with context notes in the daily file.

I use an Alfred (I'm on OSX) TODO capture which throws things into an inbox since I find that more comfy than in-emacs capture. If you are in Linux and use the (amazing) rofi, I also wrote a rofi mode to do the same thing for i3 and sway. Ubiquitous capture is definitely the way to go (and please read David Allen's Getting Things Done for more on that... =] ).

And then coming out of burnout what did I do, I started working on https://github.com/Trevoke/org-gtd.el like a maniac.

I do it with a custom skip function (source here: https://github.com/Trevoke/org-gtd.el/ )

All the inboxes end in Emacs using Org GTD .

Maybe check out Org GTD. I have found that using that is quite a bit easier than manually setting up my own agenda.

If you're curious, the package is https://github.com/trevoke/org-gtd.el - ... and the major major refactor is happening over at https://github.com/Trevoke/org-gtd.el/tree/more-flexible-organization .
