More options, yay!

Like others said, OP, I use Planka solo and its great for simple use cases.
Thank you! :-) I went with Planka for now. We'll see how well it works. But I like it so far! :-D
I use planka. It's compatible with my internal SSO and it's exactly what I was after.
There is also leantime.io that I have been hosting for 5 years or so. It is a bit more than planka or tarallo as far as scope I think, but it has integrated kanban, gannt charts, and hour logging which is all I need for my personal projects.
I know Planka has been getting a lot of attention.
Switched from trello to planka about 3 years ago (there are migration options), and I use it daily. Perfectly fine for my simple use cases.
Planka looks beautiful. I have a friend that recommended this as well. GOnna try out Planka.
Haven't used it much, but Nextcloud has kanban boards.
We run Taiga and it seems to work fine.
If you want to link to external sources in a structured way and you don't mind tweaking the looks, SolidOS (ot another SOLID app) has a task list/tracker.
I keep my personal tasks in org-mode or org-roam.
@ozoned
Kanboard and Wekan are pretty good.

Thank you! Do you recommend one over the other? or you've used them both and like them both equally?
Not them but between those two I'd recommend Kanboard if you're going to be the only user. Far lighter and easier to administer piece of kit, has everything you'd want from a fancy task list but not much more. WeKan is rather heavy software but does have a few features that are probably quite important for large team use.
@ozoned
I use Kanboard for managing projects but it's very confusing due to it having lots and lots of features. Wekan offers way less, less automation and also less clutter. I'd say go with Wekan first and see if you miss anything.
I use Planka pretty regularly to track some of my projects. They just pushed out a release candidate for v2 a few weeks ago, which brought some nice features.
Thank you for the link. Just trying to spark conversation. :-) Do you have any specific experiences with any of them that you like?
There are lots of convos on AT.
I use Mattermost because it combines a comprehensive kanban called Focalboard with chat rooms for communicating with coworkers.
