Write it in markdown and then c&p the render, you can use this: https://github.com/retext-project/retext Needs a little adjustment sometimes but it saves you a lot of work

Linux-alternative to Markor?
Not sure if it has the hotkey support you want, but I've always liked ReText for its preview capabilities.

Editor with outline, tabs, themes so that bold stands out, windows can be tiny ?
Have you tried ReText? It's limited on the themes, you'll have to import them, but behaves quite good with system theme (here on Plasma at least)

What's a user-friendly journaling/note-taking software for linux?
I use QownNotes myself. The notes are saved in Markdown format so that you can easily use them in other programs. An export function to HTML or PDF files is also available, if I'm not mistaken.

I have a problem trying to find a software-based solution for journaling and keeping notes. It must be minimalistic and have backwards and foward compatibility.
Personally, I use https://www.qownnotes.org. Notes are saved as Markdown files and are therefore easily readable. The rest of your requirements should be met by the tool as well.
