After ignoring org-mode forever (I use emacs for coding and blogging mostly) I've finally dug into it and it's amazing. I'm going to keep using Notion for pretty content I want to share, but emacs org-mode for todos, journaling, and other lists (replacing Obsidian). I think I'll use Syncthing to keep all my notes in synch.
@leo Nice! thanks for all the info. I'd like to start with a more minimal config.
Vanilla-ish @rathel I tried Doom but it's way too fancy for me.
I started with a simpler config from https://github.com/flyingmachine/emacs-for-clojure and have just been gradually improving my config as needed. I like to see what other people are doing and then add the thing I like manually.
Mickey Petersen's amazing Mastering Emacs is my bible. https://www.masteringemacs.org/
Learning emacs is a long term project.
My config is here for what it's worth:
