:emacs: anyone have experience with org column view header alignment breaking?
works fine starting with emacs -Q, and I don't change face settings anywhere in my config, and commenting out all config related to org, themes and fonts makes no difference
interestingly, starting with emacs -Q causes headline faces to all be uniform, but starting with config gives me different sizes per headline. I don't set this anywhere, so something is changing it, but after 20m I can't work out what
When I stopped my weekly routine, I also stopped organizing tasks. Now I have one big file mixed with personal and work tasks, some active and some complete. It’s an intimidating blob of “stuff,” and just looking at it makes me want to run away to a video game instead.
When should I visit my projects file and move things out into their categories? Second, what are these categories?
Rethinking and reorganizing my life - with org-mode:
@joel making you happy is one of my goals ☺️. But also seriously, this is good feedback. It requires a bit more work on my end (manual vs automatic) but I think I can automate some parts of it.

The more I learn #Emacs, the more I think I should've started way earlier.
I'm using only #OrgMode, to create and manage my digital garden, but I've already learnt a good set of useful commands, my digital garden is automagically converted from Org Mode into HTML with a nice CSS, I've even integrated Japanese furigana and PlantUML!
And I'm sharing back all my current learnings, using the digital garden itself: https://marcoxbresciani.codeberg.page/emacs/orgmode/orgmode.html
Have a nice reading, and give me feedbacks! 🙏🏻

I wish I had stayed with emacs, but life was simple then and it was not readily available on some of my platforms (1988).
Now, I would encourage a young person to use emacs and cultivate it for life because content and workflows will still be available to them forever.
My word perfect and Ms word skills have been obsolete for decades.
I've just stumbled on this blog post with a view-text-file-as-info-manual function that uses pandoc and org's ox-texinfo to convert various formats into info for convenient #emacs browsing.
It did a great job on the Fennel language reference, it looks a lot better than what I got via pandoc->texinfo->makeinfo. No index but that would be hard to conjure up from a generic markdown file. The top level TOC looks great, node jumps work well and code block are displayed as such.
#Irreal highlighted @jbaty blog post on the "gravitational pull of emacs" a cyclic moving away for simplicity's sake and a gradual pull back as personal comforts of customisations coax and inevitable return to #emacs
I've noticed a similar tidal motion back and forth, but instead of simple note-taking apps I flow between Emacs and other simpler #FOSS editors, like #Featherpad or #Notepadplusplus
Ultimately the draw & utility of #OrgMode sucks me back into Emacs and has me nuzzling comfortably back in my custom config.
This is probably a result of trying to walk the tight rope of balance between literally "getting things done" (not the GTD system) and "making life easier" with settings & customising.
I suppose, one day, the customisations might reach a stable state & the use of other editors becomes unnecessary. Balance achieved. Enlightenment.
But you know, in tech, everything moves on eternally so the balance undulates softly over time. Not to mention our lives and needs also shift over time.
So perhaps this do-si-do dance we do, will always be?

@AAMfP Furthermore, I'd not say that Markdown definitions are bloated in contrast to Orgdown. Quite the contrary since in the basic Markdown definitions, there are no tables, blocks, properties and many many more syntax elements orgdown knows.
@publicvoit
Nice point.
Indeed I'm actually using Org Mode Markup Syntax also through #Orgzly app (from F-Droid) instead of phone calendar, agenda and notes, but also when writing text emails, text messages and even on Slack, WhatsApp and other similar tools, even if they are not (so) compatible with it.
Maybe your idea is not popular but I'm sure that people using Org Mode Markup Syntax are using it everywhere. 😉
