Whats your fav kanban board for linux (and android)?
I know of planka, obsidian and nextcloud deck. What’s your favorite tool?
nextcloud deck, integrates well with other tools, can attach files, notes easily and has an awesome mobile app.
If only I could manage to get Nextcloud running on my Docker server.
I have tried many times but always fail. It’s infuriating because I am running 20+ other things without problems. Why is NC so hard??
@PlutoniumAcid have you tried their AIO package? it is much easier and has better instructions.
Thank you! I feel I am close to success but still not there yet. This AIO includes a reverse proxy, but I already have one (NPM).
I’ve seen and applied the docs for how to route with my own reverse proxy, and I come to the point where it’s all installed and started.
But then - that button “open your Nextcloud↗️” does not work :'( and I think it’s because it still requires something from its own proxy? The docs aren’t clear on this.
The logs say “failed to fetch discovery endpoint from https://cloud.mydomain.here”
I want to use a flavor of AIO that is just Nextcloud and does not expect any specific certs and proxy and stuff. Just take care of the inside stuff, and let me do the outside stuff.
I have nextcloud AIO running behind NPM just fine. There’s a page in there docs on how to configure it.
Microsoft Planner. It integrates well with thr rest of the M365 suite, and work pays for it, so whatever.
We are currently using Vikunja, I got rid of planka because it was giving way too much trouble considering the amount of features it doesn’t have.
I know not an ideal solution but after trying lots of foss applications, we decided to make our own solution. Other than that Nextcloud Deck is more than enough for most use cases
Did your solution stay internal, or has it been shared? Be keen to see.
It’s turned into a bigger project but it’s internal use only, sorry
No problem. Completely understand
I’ve had success with Focalboard and noticed nobody is using it here! Should I look at alternatives?
I only have experience with nextcloud deck. It generally works. The permissions for other users are not very intuitive. I had problems with embedding pictures.
The android app has room for a lot of improvement. Especially regarding support for markdown.
I like https://github.com/apankrat/nullboard very much.
Lonewolf - https://flathub.org/apps/site.someones.Lonewolf
Progress - https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.smolblackcat.Progress
are some alternatives too.
I love Todoist and use it every day, but that may not be the use case you had in mind.
I’m still stuck on Notion. I keep looking for OSS alternatives but nothing I’ve tried has all the features I want.
Check out Anytype! It is a local-first cross-platform app with Notion-like features, and it has a Kanban view. It is SUPER customisable, I have set it up with a PARA workflow that fits my needs.
I actually very recently tried it. I’m sure it’s great but something about the UI or maybe general paradigm switch versus apps like Notion really confused me. It looks great though, so I’m sure I’ll give it another go sometime when I have a bit more time to really learn it. Nonetheless, I appreciate the recommendation!
