I recently set up Home Assistant for the first time and I was super confused about the todo list there. It is the most barebones implementation of a todo list I have ever seen, yet it's featured in the sidebar by default, like it's super important. And then scripts and automations are in the settings menu?

I could understand it if it was a proper todo list, with dates and priorities and repeating tasks and bonus points for a CalDAV Integration, but that one is downright pathetic.

Still love the fact that HA exists, I am super happy about not being locked into any particular ecosystem, but some choices are very confusing to me.

It's mainly useful as a shopping list, not much more
