How about having a synced and editable version of your to-do list on all your devices, including mobile? I've found that to be the main filter for note taking setups. You seem to suggest that there's an emacs plug-in that can handle that?

I don't use emacs but vi on all of my devices. This should probably work with emacs stuff if they save it in regular files/directories. I put everything in ~/notes. Quick sync before leaving the house, sync when I return. Can use your desktop as the central location if you don't have a home server. Works with termux on android. I think iphone has iSh or something for alpine.

Swap src and dest as necessary (could use other options but this is compatible with OpenBSD openrsync): rysnc -rlpt --delete notes/ user@lanip:notes

There are apps for iOS that will read .org files and allow you to edit them and include the ability to sync with iCloud. beorg is one of them. I'm not sure about Android, but I have to imagine they exist there as well.
