One other point about TickTick – you can convert tasks to notes (which are exactly the same, but without embedded tasks) and vice versa. Each TickTick note – or task – can contain a LOT of information, including links to other tasks (or anything else, in fact). So you can create nested subtasks with detailed (markdown with hybrid preview) notes in them, plus linked notes with even more information in them (if you need to).
When TickTick acquired these abilities, we switched back to it from Pagico (with some regret – but TickTick is quite simply faster and easier to use). It’s also very easy to share. It’s worth mentioning that TickTick also has (very competent) support for a timeline view, and you can now reassign tasks not just to task lists, but also to individual sections within those lists (this has revolutionised the way we use it). The nested tagging is also useful. It’s one of those apps that’s in permanent development, albeit in a very low-key way – sometimes you only realise that something significant has been added by chance.
The only thing I’d like to see added to TickTick as it stands is folding (e.g. of text below headers in tasks/notes); it already acts like a two-pane folding outliner to handle subtasks (but you can’t have subnotes, interestingly, or subtasks in notes). Subtasks inside tasks also fold, but nothing else does.
