I'm looking for ways to reduce this number. The problem is, I have two kinds of TODO items. Some of them are things I should do ASAP (but not on a particular date, so they are not timestamped), and some of them are just ongoing projects, or articles/blog posts I want to write some day (but not "some indefinite day in the next 30 days", rather "some day within the next two months or so"). Do any of you have a good way to differentiate between the two? I already have (setq org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date 'all) (setq org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp 'all) (setq org-agenda-todo-list-sublevels nil) in my init.el; maybe marking the parents of the entries I'd prefer to filter out DONE is some idea? (I don't like it, though.) Maybe tags or properties? Any hints?
