I am not a fan of Emacs whatsoever (I find it a buggy mess where everything works only 80%), but org mode is absolutely fantastic for this.

Calling one of the most mature software projects on the planet a buggy mess is something, but yes, I would opt for TODO.org instead of .txt

I don't want to be mean but calling Emacs a buggy mess sounds like a skill issue.

  • Probably. Cant get a good IDE with debugging for c#, can’t get emails with events etc to sync two way with all my providers, same with calendars, etc.

    • Yeah I also noticed that even though I can accept a calendar invite from gnus in emacs, and the person inviting me sees that I've accepted, my own provider (fastmail) doesn't register me as having accepted in my fastmail calendar.

      I've never tried debugging C# from within emacs (though eglot with omnisharp solves all the other IDE needs like goto, see references, renaming and such). I think you're more likely to find help on r/emacs or https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79516308/how-to-debug-c-... or something for that.

One of the most absurd comments I’ve seen here in a long time.

  • Please tell me how to accomplish my use cases in emacs then :)

    • Do you expect us to read your mind?

      I've been using GNU emacs since the beginning, when I switched from Gosling emacs. The first few years had crashes, but since it's been one of the most stable pieces of software I've ever used.

      Your claims are just preposterous, especially without any substantiation.
