  • Signal is a centralised service so it would be stored in their servers but its encryption protocol, the Signal protocol, is well regarded. It also collects little metadata which can be concern for people with very high threat models.

    and is it easily manageable?

    Assuming you're referring to user-friendliness, the UX is very intuitive and people find it easy to get others to migrate there because of it.

  • Very specific but I'm sure people would appreciate a GUI for it.

  • Disclaimer: I am medicated. Using productivity apps is easier when you're medicated.

    Anyway, here's some apps that I use:

    • Mozilla Thunderbird: Emails, calendars, tasks and contacts in one place. Also the only functional fully offline calendar you can find on Windows. They are in the process of developing an Android version with the developer of K9-Mail. They're also finally getting to a UI update so it doesn't look like shit, which has previously been a dealbreaker for a lot of people.
    • Tasks.org: Simple tasks app I use exclusively as a shopping list. It works. That's about it.
    • Loop Habit Tracker: Habit tracker I use for my daily/weekly routines. Very simple.
  • (a note-taking/thought-keeping app only for people who like to tinker and customize so wouldn’t necessarily recommend here)

    It's as simple or complex as you make it to be. Obsidian can be used with core plugins only and work just fine.

  • Logseq didn't work with my brain but for anyone wanting an open-source alternative to Obsidian, this is the closest one.

  • It's only really mentioned for stimulant medication because of its addictive properties. It would be unsound for medical professionals to suggest it for antidepressants and antipsychotics because they do not have a risk of addiction.

  • Unless theyve got some real reason for suggesting that, you should probably get a new dr.

    It's usually suggested to avoid building a chemical tolerance to them as stimulants do have addictive properties, but it usually should not be for a month. I've discussed it with my psychiatrist and I was told that a week every 3 to 6 months is sufficient.

  • I take Vyvanse, go to therapy and try to structure my routines to work consistently.
