Guide to Org Cite
YMMV, but I would personally recommend ebib + zotra as a Zotero replacment. I used Zotero and org-cite for a few months but then dropped Zotero and went for a pure Emacs solution. I'm very pleased with the results.

[Update] Zotra: using the power of Zotero in Emacs to manage citations and pdf files
Nice work! I switch from Zotero to ebib and have used the Zotero translation server for a long time. It's nice to see a dedicated package. It would be much appreciated if you could support ebib like https://github.com/joostkremers/ebib/issues/220 then I can remove the funs in my configs.

How do YOU write academic papers in org-mode?
Yes, I do use a citation manager. I've used Zotero with BibLatex export in the past, but now use ebib directly inside Emacs (and which directly reads and writes Bib(La)tex). Pandoc's use of CSL for citation styling is really convenient, and mostly works great. I wasn't so sure if I could format citations and references just as easily using org-export.

use-package :bind blocks the default keybindings for ebib-biblio. Without :bind they work (but I don't get my own ones with :bind). Why is this happening and how can I fix it?
This didn't work. I got a warning that the package ebib-biblio could not be found. I realised that this was because I was using the straight version of use-package, which (only?) looks for packages in the repos, when in this case ebib-biblio is distributes as part of ebib. This didn't produce any warnings:

Bibtex/Bibliograpy options in Org-mode - Suggestions Wanted
An emacs-only solution would be the ebib package (https://github.com/joostkremers/ebib).

How do YOU write academic papers in org-mode?
Originally, org-ref focused on exporting through latex, and as such that is what it is best at, but you can get pretty good results using other backends too. For word, I wrote an exporter based off an Kitchin's own ox-word that exports the file to a tex file then calls pandoc to convert from tex to docx. Pandoc doesn't do a great job with cross-referencing in word so the exporter numbers figures, tables, and equations itself then hard-codes the references. They are no longer links but I don't think word supports that kind of linking anyway. The citations style is based off pandoc/citeproc. It's not important to me so I haven't played around with it much but I believe if you get the right style file (CSL) it should present the citations however you want.
