I am doing the same but with LLVM. For starters, I filtered issues with the "good first issue" label and found something to work on [1]. It took 2 months in review and about a month to research and write the code. Finally got merged yesterday. I am writing about it so that when someone else bumps into the same problem, they hopefully take 1 hour instead of 1 month. Compilers, like the kernel, are a lot of fun!

Pretty cool. A drawback of such a hard filter is we also lose all the human generated content posted after Nov 2022. I am no expert in this but a ad-block like list based filter but for AI generated content may work for this or dare I say, an AI-based filter but alas.

I found todo apps to be clunky and bloated. I decided to use github issues (of a private repository) as my notes. I even made a little script around it (via gh-cli) to edit it from the command line [1]. I don't update TODO very often from my phone, but in case I want to, I use the Github mobile app. I am finally content with this solution (although I don't know for how long).
