I highly recommend Todoist. Awesome web UI, mobile apps, keyboard shortcuts, and a simple API if you need anything more fancy.

+1 for Todoist, really under-rated app, and it works everywhere, including the Web.

I use Todoist and have beeen happy with it. You can even do a kanban board.

Microsoft TODO works well for me, and is free

OP, what does that get you that Todoist/Ticktick/Reminders don't?

Other than amusement value, wouldn't any TODO app work better?
