Annotating pdfs and keeping track of your notes - app recommendations request
I use org-noter: Emacs document annotator, using Org-mode.

Emacs for literature
Well, for me personally, I get a lot out of org-noter. I like to write in org-mode but frequently find my editing skills are improved by exporting it to a more "readable" format. I then like to use the specific-note function to click on the exported pdf/whatever to add highly localized notes for myself, which are collected in a bidirectionally-linked org file for later review.

Integrate Zotero pdf notes with org roam
An alternative is to open PDFs, from Zotero or from anywhere else, with Emacs' pdf-tools (https://github.com/vedang/pdf-tools). If you annotate the pdf, those annotations are part of the pdf. And you can also use org-noter (https://github.com/weirdNox/org-noter) and org-noter-pdftools (https://github.com/fuxialexander/org-pdftools; but see https://github.com/fuxialexander/org-pdftools/issues/93#issuecomment-1493314118 if you use the new org-noter from https://github.com/org-noter/org-noter).

Does anyone use ORG-NOTER with EPUB files and the NOV package?
I created a new user, did a fresh git clone https://github.com/weirdNox/org-noter.gi and used use-package to install nov.el.

Org-noter is under new maintainership with the first MELPA update since 2019
See the original repo, which links to a video demonstration.

Note taking app for Linux where I can add PDFs and write notes alongside them
There are some Emacs org-mode plugins (for example org-noter) that do exactly this. But this is just me pointing this out as something as exists, and not really a recommendation - Emacs is really intense to get into with a Steep learning curve.

Is there a way to do digital handwritings in emacs?
Nothing special. Assuming you have org-noter installed, create your org-roam node. Then create a headline. Run M-x org-noter (or whatever shortcut you have bound this to) on the headline. Emacs will prompt you to fill in your /path/to/pdf. It creates a property to save the file and page location.

Is org-noter dead and what are its alternatives ?
Moreover, no changes have been made for about 3 years in its github repo..

pdf tool that will take my highlighted text and automaticall turn it into a list of moveable bullet points
I use org-noter for emacs to do something similar to what you are wanting. But emacs isn’t for the faint hearted so probably not the best choice.

Use a reference manager, friends
FWIW I have this little Perl script that fetches BibTeX from doi.org for DOI numbers: https://github.com/cadadr/configuration/blob/76466b1342aaadfddf3453ab70ada4a15e82afbb/bin/doi2bib.pl I searched a lot for a way to make something similar for ISBN -> BibTeX to no avail...

LaTeX - Why do we use it?
If you're writing LaTeX without using any supporting software, it will be harder. But there are some things that you can use to make life way easier. One of these is the concept of "snippets". In Emacs I use something called yasnippet, and it works like this: I define a snippet like this or even something more elaborate like this. They have "trigger words". E.g. for the second one, I type "report" in a file and hit TAB. It inserts all that "snippet" to the file, and I can edit parts marked as $1, $2 and similar, jumping between them using TAB. I use this with Org mode, which is like Markdown, so it's not much different from typing into Word, essentially. There's some initial work figuring out how to do something like a syntax tree or say an equation, but once you figure a pattern out you can make it into a template using snippets and it's easier than Word once you have that.

There are some examples in my init.el, you can find them if you search for :after.

Dir/file local variable hell, how do you cook them?
The way I do python is, I've a proxy shell script which I set as the python interpreter in Emacs.

Long-Time Emacs User Looking to Level-Up (note-taking for classes)
One particular thing I can suggest for equations is dynamic latex equation previews, which toggles TeX source when the cursor is on an equation but when it goes out of it it toggles a rendered preview. See this and this, adapted from this).

Doom has dropped support for Emacs 26.1 (Debian stable). Suggestions on what to do next?
Wrt LSP specifically, I only use it with python and the whole config is this couple lines plus this hook. IDK how lsp-mode is configured but this works fairly well for me, and actual Python config is a bit more cumbersome (because Microsoft comes up with a new Python LSP package every other day and you can't know which one to deal with...). It hooks into Emacs' complete-symbol (i.e. C-M-i), so if company or whatever (sorry, I don't really know those packages well, there was auto-something too but IDK which one is better or recommended these days) does use that mechanism as a backend, it should work seamlessly. I've made these little bindings to quickly pick a completion from the *Completions* window (gk-interactively is just a macro that expands to (lambda () ). Again, eglot hooks into Emacs' completion mechanism, so I'd risk a guess that helm or ivy would just work with that. Personally I don't like these completion frameworks because again they look to me like they are somewhat useful but not enough to warrant their complexity. I like good old completing-read, with some modern configuration (and BTW the UI Semantics section that bit is in in my init.el contains a lot of what you could call "saner defaults"). Notably they've added some very neat structural and fuzzy matching abilities starting with 25.1 IIRC and I don't even feel the need to turn ido on when those features are enabled.

What is the most useful part of your Emacs config?
I have a little project system that I use a lot and is a life saver: https://github.com/cadadr/configuration/tree/3e11ef25344188cc55b16f314c3c5358ace8a266/emacs.d/init.el#L1249 It's simple but it's very helpful. I like to have a project command view with dired at root on the left and magit or vc.el on the right, and I can go back to that view with a single command, gk-home, bound to the Home key. Popping a shell at bottom like yakuake with a single keybinding to gk-pop-shell is very useful too. I use frame parameters to tie projects up with frames so these two functions know what to do in each project frame. Titles are set up such that it's easy to find a particular frame with something like Rofi.

Linux helpful?
Depends on what you want to do. Linux is a more welcoming environment for programmers and an OS-level package manager is very helpful. I have one big repo for all my configs, and if my computer failed today I can get up and running on anything else in a couple hours, typing a few commands only. With Windows it's always a manual process and takes longer. And sometimes Windows makes some programmers' tasks too hard, like setting environment variables, etc. And more advanced things like scripting, virtualisation, containers, etc. are generally easier to do in Linux.

RFC: theme emacs with a 6-color palette with semantics theming
E.g. a very important detail IMHO is the active vs. inactive modelines. In your light theme they are virtually the same, so you need to chase the cursor to find the active window. The first thing I modify in themes I use is to make modeline colours such that inactive one is faded but still legible, and active modeline really stands out: https://github.com/cadadr/configuration/blob/bf8b87c36dbab85d1ec35f3c9aa6f7d3c5e1f347/emacs.d/init.el#L5842 In general if you're not limited by a palette it's easier to adjust everything perfectly.
