Hello everyone, I introduce myself as the new maintainer of todoist in this repo. Thanks to Carreter for their instructions and Sergey for accepting me into that role.

Although still relatively new at this, any support is much appreciated. If anyone wants to become a co-maintainer, they can reach out to me here or email the one listed on my profile page.

If you ever notice the package is out of date, please flag it and it'll notify me!

Hey everyone, I've stopped using todoist in favor of obsidian. If anyone wants to take over maintaining this package, drop a comment or email me at willow@carreteroc.me and I'll give you instructions on how to keep the package up to date.

Cheers!

Hey @bspire - thanks for flagging this out-of-date so consistently. Would you like me to add you to the list of maintainers? I'm not using Todoist anymore, so I'd like to hand over the package to someone else. Happy to provide you/anyone else that wants to help out with instructions on how to update the package, it's pretty straightforward.

Thank you to @shawny for flagging this out of date. Now bumped to 9.13.1!

Hey all! Two small announcements:

1. If you ever notice the package is out of date, please flag it and it'll notify me!

2. If you know how to perform unattended installs of AppImages that don't require appimagelauncher, please drop a comment with info here. appimagelauncher seems to break often, and the closest alternative I've seen (gearlever) doesn't have an unattended CLI install option.

Thanks all!

@mapleafgo unfortunately I don't have the know-how for how to do this. @eggzabyte suggested gearlever, but it doesn't seem to have a CLI option yet (GitHub issue). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed?

appimagelauncher makes many appimage apps start with an error and not start, can todoist not rely on appimagelauncher?
