How can I make a process I start during an SSH session run after the session has ended? [duplicate]

Keep SSH Sessions running after disconnection

I want to launch a task through ssh and then exit my terminal and have my task continuing on my ssh server.
I have tried a bunch of things which did not work, such as :
laptop$ ssh server@ipaddress
server$ mytask &
[1] 12345
server$ logout
Or
laptop$ ssh server@ipaddress
server$ mytask
(then hit [Ctrl]+[Z])
server$ logout
Or even
laptop$ ssh server@ipaddress -f "mytask"
(and then close my terminal)
But even in my last attempt, closing my terminal would stop the task.
How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance!!

@francoisP Why don't you make an answer out of your suggestion? It can be one.
