E: I somehow replied to the wrong post. Sorry about that.

From all the Note-taking tools, I liked TW best, as the "story river" is a genious visualization, but I found the text editor very cumbersome and annoying. It just did not feel good to write my notes.

The "tag-interface" always popped up and could only be closed with the mouse, there were some issues with tab, ...

I then moved to Dendron and finally to org-roam. I think markdown notes are superior to org-files*, but I also wanted VIM keys, as being able to write without hassle is the single most important thing when taking notes. VSC of course has a VIM extension, but it is very much a second-class citizen. There is also the option to emulate and use nvim, but then I would have to set-up and customize nvim. Why not move directly to Emacs, where Evil reigns superior?

*org-files are very parasitic. I only consider them plain-text in the sense that they can be opened and edited with any text editor, similar to SVG, JSON and XML. But they are not exactly plain, and pretty much unusable outside of emacs/org-mode.
