Neorg – organize your life in Neovim
I appreciate the idea of having an org-mode equivalent in Vim, but man do the docs suck for this project. Lots of broken links, very hard to discover how to actually hit the ground running.
For anyone interested, there are alternatives that are more Markdown compatible. Vimwiki, as an example, is great.
No, Neorg does not use the same markup as Org-mode. They use their own specification that is specifically designed to be different from Org-mode spec.
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvim-neorg/norg-specs/main...
Furthermore, each item you have listed as a benefit to Org-mode is in fact capable of being done in Markdown via plugins for neovim, and probably other markdown editors, like Loqseq, Roamresearch, or Obisidian, much in the same way you speak of plugins that interface with .org docs.
https://github.com/wthollingsworth/pomodoro.nvim
https://github.com/Myzel394/easytables.nvim
https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki
So, my suggestion is that before dismissing a comment regarding a plugin that is unfamiliar to you, is to read its spec, and then try to understand why people would be perhaps dismissive of that tool, especially when it chooses to conflict with existing, more popular choices.

Note taking in Neovim?
I've been thinking of setting up a note taking enviroment in neovim. I've been searching around, and plugins as vimwiki, and nabla.nvim are great choices for me. I'm using Notion right now because of the great commands that brings that make the note taking pretty enjoyable. But the dividers, or putting background to text are features that I don't wanna lose, if possible.

Ask HN: Did anyone write a book in Nano?
I wrote a manuscript in vim a couple Novembers ago, for NaNoWrimo. I used a couple plugins, primarily Goyo [1] to add some margins, but otherwise, yeah, plain vim.
I don't think it was really any more productive than my current workflow in Obsidian. Vim keybindings are more useful for editing than for writing (and for editing code in particular, where the changes you're making are much more structured). Also, while the extra features afforded by Obsidian don't really make a difference during the writing process, I find they're really useful for outlines and other preliminary work, which is something of a point against a vim-only workflow unless you want to use vimwiki [2] or something.
Granted, Obsidian is still a markdown-based tool, so there's still some level of minimalism going on there, but by that point we're really discussing markup vs word processors, which is its own conversation—and to my mind, a much more important one. I much prefer working in markup than in a rich text editor, because plain text is easy to edit and process through the terminal, and because it lets me separate style choices from content.
I find that the markdown live preview that editors like Obsidian and Typora provide (and which vim doesn't) is a really nice compromise between a slick composing experience and the technical affordances of markup. Between that and Obsidian's hypertext features, I think I'll stick with Obsidian for the foreseeable future.

Reconstructing Obsidian Features in Vim and Bash
What, we're talking about wikis and vim, and not mentioning vimwiki?
https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki
I tried a whole bunch of personal wikis over the years (I see Zim has been mentioned, that's one of the ones I remember trying) and this is the only one that stuck.

What are some ways you used Python to make YOUR life easier?
I have created full on programs to systematically created screenshots with the game emulators with RetroArch. Also an automation tool to use a preexisting program named chdman that converts files into a needed format (also unpacking from archives). A little Python script to create a recents list of files for Vimwiki. I also created a program to access 🌈 emojis 🌈. I wrote my own GE Proton downloader and manager. Hell even the window manager I am using on Linux is written and configured in Python, Qtile. I wrote one or two plugins for it and the entire configuration is written in Python, meaning I can use functions, modules and every logic of Python to enhance it. It's Awesome.

Can anyone recommend a Lightweight TUI journal application with calendar for windows ?
I use https://github.com/pimutils/khal ...maybe it would work with WSL?... for calendar and markdown diary (have a script that pulls calendar items, tasks that are due from taskwarrior, and notes from yesterday's "tomorrow" section into each new day's journal/diary entry) via vimwiki.

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
Seems really cool. I love Vim + Markdown as well.

Reconstructing Obsidian Features in Vim and Bash
Shameless plug: there's also [wiki.vim](https://github.com/lervag/wiki.vim/), which I believe is starting to be a real contender to Vimwiki.
Regardless: In my experience, Vim + wiki with some additional plugins for fast searching and navigation is a very good combo!

Note-taking system (Second Brain implementation in neovim)
There's really interesting discussion on wiki.vim's issue tracker which we had few years ago. I think it's worth advertising because there are many more details and ideas for notetaking systems: https://github.com/lervag/wiki.vim/issues/101
You may be interested in wiki.vim and/or my writeup about how I use wiki.vim. The writeup may be interesting even if you don't want to use wiki.vim.

wiki.vim v0.6 is released
I found the discussion in #289 and wiki-ft.vim#14 pretty interesting. I've been using wiki-ft.vim because every markdown plugin seems to break in some way (broken conceal, broken table highlighting, no injections). I know wiki-ft is not great, but at least it's consistent.
There are also other improvements and bug fixes as outlined in the release notes.
