  • I use Trello regularly and I’ve heard that it violates privacy. To what degree is that statement true? Assuming that Trello does violate my privacy, what alternatives would you recommend that I use? I would prefer a Kanban board type of software that allows me to import my Trello boards and cards into itself, but that’s not strictly necessary. I would like to have the ability to add labels, checklists, and due dates to my cards. I looked around and found a few possible Trello alternatives. What do you all think of them? Do they respect my privacy? Furthermore, can I import Trello boards and cards into them? As a bonus, do any of these programs have a calendar function like Trello’s calendar power up? I use that power up on occasion.

Do any of the above programs satisfy my requirements?
