adpii - I actually did figure out what the problem is with this...
I had some Quick Steps I was using to create tasks. For some reason, tasks created that way were not syncing. You can identify them as having a slightly different icon. Unfortunately there was no fix, but I was able to manually re-created all of them and delete the originals from Outlook.
Here is a picture showing the icon next to "This isn't in To Do".

Appreciate your reply. As you can see, it's a year later and the issue still exists. I don't use QuickSteps so, while I'm happy it seems to have solved the issue for you, it hasn't for me. <sad face>

I figure out my issue. I have several email accounts in outlook desktop, my primary MS account one and a few smtp/pop accounts. Tasks will only sync from my MS account email. Don't know if that helps?- JS_1981Oct 04, 2021Copper Contributor
Phigam01 I am having the same issue on new Mac Mini with MS O365 To Do app, logged in to same O365 account as all the other devices. Sync just isn't working on desktop. No error messages, just not displaying the same information in the lists. And I only have ONE email account using the Outlook desktop products on my Mac.
