Well, crap. Any migration path or alternatives? I don't even need 99% of Astrid's bells and whistles, just your basic "add entries and tick 'em off" todo list along the lines of what the Palm V used to do.
I rely on this with Gtasks on Android every day as my main note taking vehicle. I find it especially useful for literally instantaneous syncing between phone, tablet, desktop, and laptop.
Here's a way to access it via its own independent window (I keep this pinned in my browser):
Update: Use the link below instead. Even better.
We are primarily focused on grocery shopping lists, but it'll work fine for other simple lists, and makes it really easy to share lists and collaborate with other people.
Also, thanks for including a list of acknowledgements in the app. I track all of the ones I find at https://www.cocoacontrols.com/apps?o=date, but unfortunately a lot of people simply don't include any OSS acknowledgements.

As for alternatives, Google Keep is pretty great for your basic todo needs:
I get an infinite redirect loop trying to https://astrid.com/users/sign_in with google.
By the way, Keep doesn't do reminders, its only purpose is simple note-taking.
It's just a tiny ajax driven todo list written in php with a sqlite (or mysql) backend
Trivial to setup, self hosting and so simple you can hack it to do what you want.
I wrote a small scheduler that emails me todo's at random intervals after the last one completed.
ETA: OmniFocus has a nice iPhone client.
They even put out a beta of a usable Android app a few days ago -- finally!
.. and Google Keep for notes.
1) Supports a GTD workflow
2) Works on both iOS and Android (but also has a web interface).
Toodledo syncs well with apps like 2Do (available for both iOS and Android) and Pocket Informant.
If you (or anybody else) is interested in migrating to Toodledo, I wrote a Ruby client library for the Toodledo API that may be handy - ping me and I can send you the link.
And if anybody has other suggestions for services that fit both of the above requirements, I'd love to know.
Our desktops apps are really useful to structuring coding projects and I use it all the time while coding (as Todoist supports shortcuts and outline like nested structures) - - and it's really fast to use. Here's one of my recent projects, for an idea: http://cl.ly/image/1C2p1j1b0r3B
This is great because you can assign due dates and priorities to sub-tasks - - and you can hide/show Todoist while you develop (via a global keyboard shortcut).
