5 min man, 5 min today. Maybe 6 tomorrow. We're all hidden perfectionists here, and it takes time to understand ourselves because we're pretty complex. I'm realising a lot that I'm comparing to whom I want to be, and that's unfair to who I am today.
Also, time tracking. Pushing that "start" button on a task is a magical switch, maybe try that out? Super-productivity.com is pretty ADHD-aware in my experience.
Super Productivity has a web-app that should work on mobile as well as desktop.
It supports WebDAV so if you have a Nextcloud instance you can use that to sync across devices - unfortunately the syncing isn't encrypted so you won't get any privacy if you use Dropbox or any of the other sync methods.
I've enjoyed using Super-Productivity, which was developed by a SWE for task planning and productivity tracking. Here is the repo.

I managed to find two alternatives that weren't freemium or stuff:
Pendulums
I'm doing some fake testing on them, like adding time entries and stuff. Pendulums is closer to toggltrack in a lot of features, the only one I see lacking is the whole 'billable hours' thing. But either way it's really cool.
super-productivity does not store your data in the cloud, just your browser cache (I think). So you may be more interested in that if you don't want to share your time trackings with anyone. It has fewer features compared to pendulums, but it's way more dev-oriented, so that might be a plus depending on the user.
Super Productivity does this. Ish

I just wish I got on better with the rest of it, but this bit is really good - when you go back to the app and the timer is not running, it will ask you if you want to log the missing time to a task or a break.

Super Productivity has most of the things you ask for. There is not a classical landing page as such, but using the notes feature creatively (e.g. for your long term goals), you should be able to come very close, to what you ask.
What I personally like a lot is the timeline feature, which combines fixed appointments and events, with the more flexible tasks you want to do during a day. You can even load your appointments from google calendar.
Extending on the idea of putting all this work relevant information together, you can also import/link tasks from Jira, GitHub, GitLab or OpenProject, if your company uses one of these.
Furthermore this is a community driven open source project. If a feature doesn't exist, you always have the option to add it on your own.
This is really ironic given the conversation but... so what exactly is your question? :-)
Are you trying to figure out how to get things done, whether to take medicine, work, home, relationships? If you say all of that, okay but probably better to start with 1-2 areas and build from there.
I don't have any data (important disclaimer) about ADHD and other drugs, but I could see how someone would feel like something's missing after going off ADHD medication. I used to take medicine, and I remember a big difference was that I would decide to go to bed. Now, I feel driven to keep doing stuff even if I'm not really being productive with it. The last two nights, I've sat down to read and there goes 1.5 hours (or 90 minutes, whichever you prefer). I read some, and then feel like I should just keep reading. I can't go to sleep until It's so late that I'm completely exhausted.
For work, sometimes I feel overwhelmed but I keep trying things to help get me on the right track. Today, I wrote down 4 things to do. I have 100s really, but I picked the priorities. I'm using https://super-productivity.com/ to try and help keep me focused; knowing there is a clock counting my time helps keep me on track.
I sit so that I don't face any windows. Seeing people or cars go by would distract me.
Right now, I am finishing lunch and then have one big priority left. I'll ignore emails or calls for an hour to make sure I get that knocked out.
Let me know what else you're looking for and I'll try to fill-in more details.
I suggest Super Productivity. Sorting folders, daily goals, syncing data and syncing with Jira Github etc, detailed daily data. There is web app, desktop apps various selections.
I've been using this web app: https://super-productivity.com/ I love it because it's lightweight and intuitive. Simply has the features needed without clutter.
We never had any luck with organization-wide task lists. They always turn into a complete mess because different people put different effort into them at different times.
I am not 100% sure this is a perfect fit (for example I haven't checked out the key shortcuts yet), but I have started to use Super Productivity [Link]
I am learning and working on small projects so I am trying to track the time I spend on different topics and it's pretty handy.
If you have a look at it you can decide quickly if it's going to be a good choice for you or not.
I've had trouble finding the "perfect" app.. Its like looking for the web-version of OneNote (doesn't exist).
The 2 best options I found were:
1) vikunja - run in Docker, then use CalDev to sync with a Calendar
2) Super Productivity - https://super-productivity.com
Not exactly what you're after, but something to keep an eye on:

The dev is doing a killer job with UI. It will sync with a WebDAV server (self hosted Nextcloud or roll your own) or exports to json file.
Different PC'S I have a works laptop hooked up to the same monitors as my gaming PC, if you don't have that luxury setup different users.
Also https://super-productivity.com/ is really good at working hard and effectively and not procastinating.
I use Mark Down text files, Markor as my Android editor and VScode is my Linux editor, Syncthing to sync files between devices. With this setup, I get notes, lists and tasks, and you can edit the files with any text editor!
Edit:
I start using Super Productivity, very good project manager. https://super-productivity.com/
I really like this app for getting every day things done. It has a built-in Pomodoro timer which can be set to whatever intervals you'd like. I don't really use it as it was intended (at least not yet), but for getting things done, it's changed my life.
I tried to reduce the UI a little further. Buttons in the task list are now only shown when there is already content for it. That's a click more when wanting to add content, but less clutter. I think it works nicely. Thank you very much again! Would be curious to hear your thoughts about the adjustments: https://super-productivity.com/app2/#/
There is a new version of my favorite to do manager available now. You can download it on git or check out the web version first.
Features include:
Please note that this is the very first public release. There will be bugs!!! For or more stable experience you might also want to try v1.
