Just deployed @vikunja into productions after having tried a dozen other project 'management' tools... I haven't had this much _fun_ & ease organizing tasks since I discovered Asana over a decade ago. And I've tried OpenProj, Trello, Taiga, Basecamp, Leantime, Reminders.app, etc.

Vikunja, after an two hours of use, has:
- Really good keyboard integration
- No AI junk getting in my way
- #GANTT CHARTS - why does every other app think that died in the 90s, and/or that Kanban is the only way??? (It also does Kanban)
- SUPER fast and low-latency UI
- self-hosted, works air-gapped/offline
- #SQLite DB backed, because why would a glorified to-do list app need any more than that!?
- #Linux binary is running in Linux Compatibility on #FreeBSD, since building it natively seems impossible (can't build pnpm without pnpm)

A few things it could improve:
- configuration via YAML... many of those parameters could be in the DB, and managed via the GUI (ie: mail server, user registrations, etc)
- user management & administration
- endorse or disavow the 3rd party IOS app

@mWare @vikunja ooo cool! I was looking for something non-cloud for managing train projects awhile ago and literally went back to Project 97 because nothing else I could find at the time did Gantt charts in a useful way, which is how my PM brain works for projects like that.
