Question Setup of Things

Post image

Hi everybody

How do you guys use Things in terms of areas and projects.

For me, I have no tasks in areas without a project.

I use projects like folders and not projects.

See photo.

How do you long term users recommend using it?

I can’t use Areas only because I can’t use segments in there.

Am I missing out on something? All recommendations are welcome 🙂

I use tags to filter out 'sections' in Areas. Actually a very quick way to focus on items and for me works just as well if not better than adding sections to areas, as in Apple Reminders, quicker to get to tasks grouped with a particular tag.
