Is there a mixture of workflowy and todoist to organize the GTD process?

I have used todoist, things, google tasks, workflowy tightly. Remember the milk, wunderlist, trello, asana watched. Now I work alternately in workflowy and todoist and I am looking for a service that combines the advantages of these two projects.
The current problem with Todoist is that it does a good job of handling specific tasks, but the organization of information in it is disgusting. Projects are inconvenient to use, there is no way to open all projects and see the full picture, there is no way to create nested lists - there are only two levels.
In this regard, workflowy looks great - everything is very simple, visual, you can turn off other projects when attention is focused on one thing, build a structure that clearly displays the organization of information in your head. The problem starts as soon as you want to plan the current day and see the amount of work for the week - there is simply no such possibility. You have to get out and create lists, drag tasks there and get confused.
In this regard, we need a service that, similar to workflowy, can create nested lists, but with a scheduler mode like in todoist. If nested lists can additionally be viewed in a graphical representation of the mind map, then this is simply gorgeous.
Each person has a global plan in his head, while pulling out small tasks from it and doing them day by day. This is such an obvious use case that it’s simply hard to believe in the absence of a convenient service for organizing this work.

I also use Workflowy and Todoist at the same time. Also from time to time I try to find a replacement for the latter. No success so far either...
I think you should check out moo.do. I myself recently discovered, while I'm poking around, I haven't made a final opinion yet. But the thing is interesting and original.

dynalist.io is awesome . At least what I was looking for.
the developer stole a lot from Workflowy and improved it.

This is called acm (adaptive case management). In my understanding.
The concept is this. I call it gtd for groups.
But there are no finished products. Have not found. Been looking for a long time. Then he began to think of his own system)
I came up with it. Implemented in a number of companies.
We work in it ourselves.
But there are a number of architectural ambushes over which I am now racking my brains.
For example, check points in the concept of gtd due to the group have varieties and features.
There are mandatory check points from the process. Their composition and order cannot be changed.
It is quite difficult to take them to a personal list.
There is a check point of the case. They are created for the task. This is what is in workflow. And analogues like Trello.
Now we understand that we need a third type of check points - which arise along the way.
Thus, we have 3 types of check sheets.
The last two can easily be combined on a person and form a single checklist. In theory.
In practice, we just go here and want to try. Not the fact that this scheme will survive.
The reason for the absence of such a solution is understandable - it is eerily complicated. And therefore lives only in custom systems. It will be extremely difficult to make a box for this.
Although the same Megaplan tried to do something similar. And to some extent they succeeded. But it's hard to apply.
And while the solution is that the main control goes in our system (casepress). There are different reports. Situation data representations. And additional control through wunderlist checklists. Fortunately, they are well integrated both in the phone and in chrome.
Something like that )

I used todoist and workflowy too. Now I use Checkvist
Here you can:

  • work with nested lists like workflowy (tags, filters, notes, attachments)
  • add due dates (and recurring ones too) for items
  • export tasks to calendar
  • use very convenient navigation and vi-style hotkeys

But personally I didn't like it...
And yes, there is a problem with GTD and nested projects, you are freaking out about this problem.
I myself do not know how to deal with this problem (there can be several dozen levels of nesting for a particular project (software development))), GTD says that there should not be nested projects, there should be a lot of "different projects" in sight, but again, there may be hundreds of such projects in sight, and in some cases more than a thousand, and this causes a feeling of oppression from work, and not motivates to do anything.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
