Slack’s new WYSIWYG input box is terrible

Have you tried Microsoft Project or the various web SaaS clones? The ones with the task hierarchy on the left (of arbitrary depth) and a Gantt chart on the right. I think they all support entering effort estimates (like “5 days work”), dependencies, and so on.

Was there something you didn’t like about them?

Haven't seen MS Project in a decade. I haven't found any SaaS like it, but maybe I don't know the right keywords to search for.

I came across this list https://thedigitalprojectmanager.com/microsoft-project-alter... (scroll down for the screenshots of the various products) but I haven't used any of the tools on that list. But they're certainly out there.

I used https://liquidplanner.com/ for a bit, it was clunky and slow and expensive, but did get the job done for what I needed.
