Show HN: I built a life planner that has only "one page"

2•eltonlin•51m ago
I spent 5 years working a f*cking to-do app and being a loser. Here's what I learnt.

Life planners don't work if they're too simple (e.g. Apple Notes for everything). They also don't work if they're too complicated (e.g. Notion templates).

They must be adequate, such as having basic fucking hierarchy where you can have tasks and sub-tasks. They must also be centralized, because reminders don't fucking work if I can't see them because they're hidden in 5 different places.

The resultant version is https://beta.actions.life. It's free forever for early beta users, and you can try it without going through some bullshit sign-up flow.

I hope you can tell me what's good and what's shit about the app, so I can make it better for you. Thanks.
