Carsten Dominik fucking snapped when he made org-mode in '03

Honestly nothing compares to it for me in terms of keeping track of tasks. Which is kind of depressing when you think about it, no single task management app flows as nice for me as org-mode does. I have a deep love for org mode though, if it weren't for that and emacs as a whole I wouldn't be using linux every day.

org-mode? Give me an example?

Really it's just a fancy way to render a text file, but since it's in emacs that means it has loads of ways to interact with the file. Here's an example layout with dummy data for how I usually organize my notes. Every week I make a new .org file then fill it out like this as the days go on. My favorite bonus is all of these headlines "fold", to make navigating around a huge file easier. And you can nest subtasks near infinitely if you end up doing huge project management with it.

Really the biggest drawback to this is: for phones, org file support kind of sucks. They are technically just text files, but I can think of only 1 app that renders the files nice like this on a phone.

I see.

I think phone + VPS is the way to do everything.
