Can anyone recommend a fairly simple, privacy-respecting to-do list for Android, preferably available through F-droid, and preferably not needing a subscription?

Can anyone recommend a fairly simple, privacy-respecting to-do list for Android, preferably available through F-droid, and preferably not needing a subscription? I see several apps in the "Task" section of F-Droid, but I don't know which apps are the most stable and usable.
I'm not trying to manage a house-building project: I just need to keep on top of everyday housekeeping tasks for a while.
Thanks!
@CppGuy I'm using simpletask, very simple, does the job.
There's a version that can synchronise the list (a text file) to your Nextcloud instance.
It's on F-Droid -

@CppGuy "Omni Notes FOSS" provides List-oriented notes. You can easily tick/untick each item of your List.
Available on F-droid. -

@CppGuy
There's a technology involving graphite & pressed sheets of tree pulp that might be worth looking into. It's a bit cumbersome, but way good on the privacy end of things.

PS. Sorry to hear of your bout with chickenpox. Ouch!
Thanks. I think I remember using that graphite technology in school, back in the day.

I use Dynalist, free subscription for basic (and largely enough) functionality. It is not Foss, but managed by a small Texan company. Uses their servers to synchronize between mobile and desktop. It has a really great outline feature to open subtasks etc.. The UI is really handy.
I used to use Workflowy, but it was expensive for the same service. -

@CppGuy I'm mis-using Nextcloud Deck for to-do lists, especially to share some of them between family members. Obviously needs a Nextcloud server somewhere, that might be to much effort for you if you don't have one already.

Ooh, I can see that being useful for things like taking medicine. Pregabalin has scrambled my brain to the point where I'm not always sure whether I've taken my pills. Thanks.

Thanks for the recommendation, but I don't currently have a Next cloud instance, largely because we haven't the bandwidth to make it usable when we're away from home.

Latest version is from september 2022Thanks! I've installed it and given it a spin to see how it works. I think I'll have to learn the todo.txt shortcuts to get the most out of it.

@CppGuy i use 1list. Very simple, very effective. It cannot be synced easily tho
Thanks for the recommendation. I've installed 1List and given it a spin. I'm not sure it quite does everything I need here, but I'm going to keep it installed as a general list-taker.
