I got tired of waiting for Ulysses to improve their handling of Markdown and let my subscription lapse at the start of the year. It is a great editor and org mode was fantastic but it chokes on large files. The experiment with Emacs ended a few months ago. Unfortunately for me, I don’t have much hair left to give to the cause. The downside is that you will spend a lot of effort tearing your hair out in frustration. You can customize the editor to do everything you want it to do. The payoff for that obsessive tinkering is huge. Any small change throws things off and you are back in the rabbit hole. You have to live in Emacs full-time and tweak till you get it to the stage where it is usable. It is the best outliner implemented in text files that I have come across. Not the task management component, I have no need for that. Org mode in Emacs was an absolute revelation. I tried a whole host of editors and did a deep dive into them. There is no editor which does all the things I want.
