Super Productivity
A free, MIT-licensed task manager with time tracking, timeboxing and Jira, GitLab and GitHub integrations. Its focus is developer and deep-work use, so it suits plain shopping lists less well than Microsoft To Do.

Vikunja
An AGPLv3 task manager with Kanban, Gantt and table views that you can self-host. Self-hosting needs your own server, and the hosted plans are paid, which makes it a poorer fit for casual use.
Best for Self-hosted team task boards

Taskwarrior
A free, MIT-licensed command-line to-do manager for Linux and macOS, with Windows support only through WSL. It has no graphical interface, so it suits terminal users more than the apps in this list.
