Came here to say this, thanks.
Only thing to add is that I like the "inbox" feature in Todoist (plus a single catchall project). I get overeager during the day and add a bunch of stuff. The inbox makes it easy for me to mostly just remove things I won't actually do but then file away the stuff I might for later.
I've put weekly chores into a single recurring task and do them on Sundays or kick back another day or two (or just skip) if I'm busy.
It’s hypocritical for me to offer personal productivity advice, but here I go.
Weekly chores should be on a printed checklist on a clipboard kept in the kitchen or similar. These are wholly predictable items and are just clutter in a todo application, which should be devoted to making sense of the “everything else” in life.
