@menelion n asterisks are n-th level headings (1 to 6).
Lists are specified using a hyphen
This would render perfectly well in Org:
* Eins
- list item inside eins
- something else
** Zwei
- list item 1 inside Zwei
- item 2
- item 3Honestly, #Orgmode is also easier than #Markdown. Just like Markdown, #LaTeX support is built into the language.
I've written scientific papers and whatnot using #Org mode. My static website is published using #Hugo, which supports Org OOTB (if not for this, I'd be using #Zola or #Astro)... With #orgroam I can organize my notes using the #zettelkasten method and view notes on a graph à la #Obsidian. Note that #OrgRoam is the objectively superior #Obsidian alternative, just as #Orgmode itself blows Markdown out of the water.
How could I forget literate configs? Computational notebooks are a GODSEND. Imagine a file that acts very much like a #Jupyter #Notebook (graph support etc is taken care of thanks to #Emacs). Imagine an entire Jupyter Notebook sent in a simple text-ready file.
It's totally possible to open an Org notebook in a plain text editor, make changes and send it to peers. If they have Emacs open they can also execute the notebook just like they would with a Jupyter Notebook. Results are displayed (by default) in-place too.
I invite @publicvoit to share his opinions
@mykhaylo @ratatui_rs @orhun Holy crap. I didn't know this was a thing. I started using Obsidian a while back and was very excited about it. I still really like it. But then I switched from #neovim to #emacs and discovered the power of #orgmode and #orgroam and a fully integrated environment, so I've been really conflicted because Org on Android isn't great. But now maybe I can integrate #obsidian into my new Emacs workflow. Thanks for this work. I'm installing it rfn.
Currently I have 79MB of .org files in ~/org. That's 7608 files, 1631829 lines of text, 83849 headlines, and 8339921 words. The largest single file is 1.4MB and the longest lined file has 26370 lines.
#Emacs #orgroam #sqlitep issue returns?

Second-guessing 2020's #orgroam function as 'similar' to org-roam-db-sync did C-u M-x, it processed my notes and so far so good!
The fragility of tech does not bode well. One hour and five minutes ago I sat down to add one line to a report; my 'fix' was a guess born of experience with #Emacs things. What would reg'lar folk do? Take the day off?
I spend 10x the time (re)configuring-configuring computers to be functional than what I can spend using it to get things done.
I'll add that line now
OMG it is WORSE! Not only did #Emacs #orgroam refuse to save my work, but on a restart it now ceases to allow me write access to my NOTES!!! I can't update invoices, reports, nothing, everything is now BLOCKED:
Company: backend company-capf user-error: The Org-roam database was created with a newer Org-roam version. You need to update the Org-roam package
finalizer failed: (wrong-type-argument sqlitep nil) [3 times]
this was all caused by updating the Org-roam package.
WTF #orgroam I have unsaved files you won't let me save because…
org-roam-db: The Org-roam database was created with a newer Org-roam version. You need to update the Org-roam package

Currently I have 77MB of .org files in ~/org. That's 7493 files, 1582139 lines of text, The largest single file is 1.4MB and the longest lined file has 26370 lines. 7459 are inside org-roam, 5583 of those are "dailies". 23177 "nodes" in total. 81375 headlines. 220 files contain 372 TODO and 5773 DONE entries. 85375 git commits in the last year.
The downside is adding from my phone. I use #orgzly that I replicate with #nextcloud via #apache on an RPI5, #owncloud is also good. In #orgroam I have the orgzly mirror tumbled into a bookmarked page where I periodically relocate notes not needed on my phone.
I DREAM of the day all of my notes are on only MY server, and only MY phone could access them. This is my compromise.
@paninid I use #OrgMode in #emacs with #orgroam.
I just posted some stats the other day https://fosstodon.org/@nickanderson/114004090835926703
Currently I have 75MB of .org files in ~/org. That's 7349 files, 1547765 lines of text, and 7678801 words. The largest single file is 1.4MB and the longest lined file has 26370 lines. 7315 are inside org-roam, 5478 of those are "dailies". 22593 "nodes" in total. 79100 headlines. 226 files contain 560 TODO and 5604 DONE entries. 83360 git commits in the last year.
@mostalive I also use #orgzly on my phone that gets sync'd via #Nextcloud and then imported to #Emacs #orgroam using a transclude
#+transclude: [[file:~/Nextcloud/Documents/orgzly/Notes.org][Notes]]
I am writing this toot in #FIDONet mode. Just kidding. but close. Playing with `mastodon.el` in #emacs. And the 'write toot' buffer has a very #bbs vibe to it, with the keybindings right on top. I hesitated on this before, looked complicated. But less complicated than the convoluted way I came up with to share bookmarks with my #orgroam notes more often.
@kickingvegas I haven't used #Emacs in almost 20 years, and have only been drawn back in by #OrgRoam, but it has been a hard slog, reminding me of why I left after more than a decade of use.
You just solved the mystery of why many of the packages I've installed have example elisp configuration code that has all these weird colons in them and a distinct absence of setq's where I expected them to be.
Thanks very much for that 
#AdventOfSystemSeeing day 13 - name the moves- in progress. Good thing I backed up my work on the internet, day 8 got half deleted and day 6 is probably in a different medium than the rest. I think todays move is "don't sweat the details" - collect references, using a thing with a keyboard if I must. #orgroam
