Not necessarily anything new, but I've been looking for a clean and simple todo / project planning web application for an affordable price and ideally e2e encrypted. From what I've seen most solutions that look appealing are focused on teams and have set their pricing accordingly. I just need a todo app that goes a little further with a kanban board, sprints. Full e2ee would be the cherry on top.

We're building a todo/planning app https://thymer.com. It will have a free version for individual users (and paid for teams).

Although it doesn't have a kanban board (at this stage), our goal is of course to offer a good solution for everything related to planning and scheduling.

We're strongly considering e2e encryption, but we're not 100% sure yet, because other features like CALDAV integration and server-side search are not compatible with e2e. The app runs entirely locally and syncs in the background (via CRDT), so it's super responsive.

Looks neat and I particularly like the 80 day startup thing you've got going on :)

The product isn't exactly what I'm looking for. I have a web based, more visual application in mind.

I use Todoist and have beeen happy with it. You can even do a kanban board.

I love Todoist, but they are slowly shifting their product into the b2b space by making it more collaborative and company friendly. I am worried they will eventually become unusable for consumers since there just isn't much money in it.

That's what I use currently, but kanban boards look and feel like an afterthought to me. Sprints would also be nice to have.

Can you provide an example of a todo or project management app that does sprints well?

We are using Basecamp as a team and have been really happy with it. I think their free tier should work well for a single person and I could see myself using it if I was working solo.
