Not necessarily the wrong tree. Mass-deletion isn't a thing yet, but as @jclo showed, it's coming in iOS 15.
Yeah I did that too. I figured "hmm what if I tried a little pause, like a 'spoken comma'... ooo! It worked".
I mean items in the lists.

I use Things too…..this far.
But Apple’s apps becomes better and better, all the time.
Gonna checkup Notes and Reminders in 15 for sure
I am happy Apple do a lot more work on their apps today.
Other devs have to keep up to provide something we need before Apple have added it in their apps.
Just dropped BusyCal when they asked for a subscription on the app I bought earlier.
(correction: upgrade fee)
I am pleased with the Apple Calendar now. Found nothing lacked of what I needed in it today.
It syncs over all devices without buying separate apps to different platforms too.

The problem with collaborating with Notes is iCloud syncing. Sometimes it’s near instant. Sometimes it can take a half hour to sync. No way to force a sync. Too frustrating for users.
Because Teams need to show added value to remain employed. That Team includes the executive suite.
Having the lists shareable makes it even more awesome, my wife and I share our grocery list on reminders, so we can both edit and use it!
I use BusyCal too. It is NOT a subscription. They're charging for a new version but the old one continues to work if you bought it. HUGE difference between that and a software rental where it stops working the moment you stop paying.
You're correct, I can sit with that version I have. I see no point in it when I found that when Apple Calendar works like a charm. Moving on is better. I won't change my mind.
I don't need it infinitely but I need more than 1 level.
Fair enough, just wanted to correct the record -- these guys are doing a good thing by selling separate versions instead of subscriptions
I use Calendar like 90% of the time, but BusyCal is the only one I've found that lets you view more than 6 weeks at a time in month view. It also lets you pack in way more days in week view, if you want. Super handy for longer term planning, if you've got a big screen to use it on.
The cool thing here is that you can switch back and forth between the two and everything stays synced up.

You're correct, not subscription. I give them kudos for not going subscriptions in a time where a lot do, for sure.
I am looking at so many apps, subscription, not subscription, upgrades or not, right now.
It's not a bad calendar, I've had it for awhile. Not worth paying for an upgrade though.
Honestly Apple's Calendar feels cleaner to use now on macOS.
A bit too clean on iOS I think
So, I still prefer WeekCal I have on iOS for now

I’ve really wanted it to be a list app but it just doesn't compare to other list apps.
Concerning Tags in Notes and reminders under macOS: Does anyone know if they are in sync with Finder Tags?
I've on occasion tried to use Reminders over the years. It's hard to justify once I purchased a copy of Things3 from culture code.
Not sure why Apple decided to go on it's own with Reminders. They could of easily bought Things3 and integrated it.
All that being said, Reminders is getting better and better. I'll continue to use Things3 but I keep an eye on Reminders just to see where Apple is headed and how they are progressing. They have yet to do anything that would cause me to switch.

I use Reminders to notify me to take my afternoon eye drops daily at the same time. It’s easy for me to forget because of being busy or other distractions.
i use reminders for lots of things I need reminding about - esp whilst driving (remind me when I get home to...)
Almost always use a date/time though as without that it becomes a bit invisible
I see theres still no notes reading on my watch. what a pity.. its where we store all sorts of things like meal plans, home project work lists, lists of our neighbours names etc...

Reminders are still not customisable enough for me to use them over a third party app just yet, my main bugbear is that sometimes I want to snooze a reminder for 10 mins or so, just while I finish something off, but you can’t change the snooze options, you just just snooze for an hour at the shortest, I hope they change that one day…
Why can I still not long press on a reminder and have an option to 'defer' it to next day or next week?
Has natural language in Reminders got worse in iOS 15? I used to be able to set a reminder “go for a run 12:00” and it would detect ”12:00pm” as a time. Now it doesnt recognise this as a time until I add “12:00pm”
really annoying
