@youronlyone I'm using org-mode. The markup itself was not difficult at all, basics in no time but it's a never ending process of tweaking my system and methodologies. https://cmdln.org/2023/03/13/reflecting-on-my-history-with-org-mode-in-2023/
I use it for everything, or as much as I can, including knowledge management, writing email, blogging, jira ticketing, presentations, encrypted secrets, tracking time and more. If I'm doing something (especially text oriented) it comes back and touches #emacs #orgmode in some way. https://cmdln.org/2023/03/25/how-i-org-in-2023/
@nickanderson Thank you for sharing! All these time, I viewed org-mode simply as another plaintext editor markup language, like Markdown.
Your articles enlightened me about it, and convinced me to take another look, this time deeper, look at it.
My sites are running Hugo, and it has Org-mode support. With what you described in detail, I'm starting to see how my workflow will become smoother. Currently, I type notes in plaintext, then I write in Markdown. Or, sometimes I just jump straight to markdown. In some cases, I use markdown for note taking, and everything ended up a mess.
Thank you very much for sharing!
@youronlyone I'm so glad you found it helpful and that you enjoy your journey with org-mode! It's very nice to not have to author in so many different formats. There is probably an org export backend for the need. I think I mentioned it in one of those posts but if not, I had previously been using the direct orgmode support in Hugo. It's ok but the markdown support is better, so now I use ox-hugo to export org to markdown with the necessary frontmatter for Hugo to use. https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/
