Live demo on home page without signup
From 2 comments
Interesting to have a workable demo right in the home page without asking people to signup. It works better than screenshots

Data stored on company servers; wants self-hosting
From 2 comments
Love the idea but my data having to live on someone else's servers makes it an unfortunate non-starter for me

Recurring tasks that repeat after completion

Notes or longer text on entries
From 1 comment
Seems like that, yeah. The thing that I’d need, which is what bugs me with teuxdeux as well, is an option to add some notes or more elaborate text on the entries. Sometimes it’s…

Have a look at https://teuxdeux.com. It's similarly laconic as Tweek, and the default view is "now and the next few days".
ghewgill on HNNice! Seems like a beefed up version of https://teuxdeux.com/

TickTick, Things 3, Todoist
From 3 comments
TickTick does this, best todo app I've ever used.
poprivet on HNThe only app that does this right I know is Things 3[1] by Cultured Code. [1]: https://culturedcode.com/
chazeon on HNTodoist allows you to to create a repetitive tasks (that restarts the clock after task completion) by typing "every!" with an exclamation mark.
