FWIW, I ended up doing a lot of org-mode-like things by starting with https://zim-wiki.org a VERY long time ago; I use it for notes, scheduling, publishing my own website, and even slides with the s5 thing.

Somewhere in there, I gave org-mode 2 or so years and eventually gave it up entirely; it just really plays SO un-nicely with literally everything else.

Anyone else looking for this sort of thing, I'd probably point to Obsidian first, but I'll probably stick with zim for the time being.

I also love Zim! Don't get me wrong, Org-mode is cool and everything, but for a lot of what I do I need to just very quickly drop screenshots and a GUI is just easier. I also have a Zim-based website (https://wiki.shielddigitaldesign.com) and used it to track all my tasks on my master's thesis.
