Hello @doablesoftware, and welcome to the forum.
I would like to offer a couple of suggestions about how best to make use of this forum. As far as I know, we don’t have a formal welcome page or list of forum rules, but perhaps others can chime in with additional suggestions, and perhaps at some point we can put together an introduction page.
1. Titles: The title of each of your posts should truly be a title rather than a sentence or the beginning of your actual post. One of your recent posts had a title of more than 30 words. I would suggest using titles of up to 5 words, or, if necessary, up to a maximum of 10 words. Also, the title should function as a heading that indicates the overall topic of the post.
2. Grammar: To make it easy for everyone to understand your posts, standard grammar would be helpful. If English isn’t your first language, perhaps you could let us know, and we can be considerate of that.
3. Scope: This forum is primarily about outlining software. Since you are a new user, perhaps you could limit yourself for now to writing posts that specifically relate to outlining software. Your post entitled, “on desktop, besides gcal, anything for repeat / recur todos at specific times, and notifies you at the specific time?” does not ostensibly relate to outlining software.
Thanks for taking these points into consideration.

Thank you, Lucas. Quite a flood of rather confusing postings.

I checked into the forum yesterday Saturday in the afternoon, and found almost all the latest posts being from Doable Software; for a moment I wondered whether Chris had hired a moderator ;-)
As a guerrilla marketing guy, I have to ask @Doable Software: are you anyhow related with https://www.doable.com/ ?

those posts are not ‘from’ me if read them
they are from i dunno who since i focus on the content
and anything else that is helpful
—
the important i was thinking about and was going to reply to a different (but now i dont need to)
is that a lot of the title needed to have more info
they needed to be more informative & descriptive as to what they were about
info has value and that info should not be truncated or succinct in the way that titles are not fully descriptive
it’s surprising that some have not already become learned in that basic lesson of information design, especially assuming that we all are active/heavy web users
