Comment on Show HN: macOS Reminder Sync for Obsidian Tasksparent

Comments

What features is the Reminders app missing? I switched from Things to Reminders and didn't notice any missing features. Not doubting your statement - I'm genuinely curious to know what functionality might be lacking in Reminders that I'm unaware of.

Persistent reminders. TickTick's implementation is good.

what is a persistent reminder?

It keeps spamming notifications until you act on it. Very helpful if you need some help with attention.

I certainly see the notifications for incomplete tasks from Reminders on my lock screen every time I lift my iPhone. I have one I've been ignoring for weeks. Seems pretty persistent to me...

I use the IOS "Due" app for this. I have it set-up to pull out items from Reminders that have days and times assigned.

Makes it really hard to forget those tasks.

I have used that, it's pretty nice! For now I settled on TickTick cause it's easy to use from my Linux laptop and my iOS devices. If you are fully Apple, Due is a good choice.

Also, Due syncs via iCloud, which can be e2e encrypted nowadays.

With TickTick you're storing / sharing your data with a commercial company...
