I'm a huge Emacs user but I totally suck at org-mode. Now I do use it but mostly for the outlining functionality: I love it that I can quickly collapse/expand by "x levels" (for example only level 1 titles, up to level 2 titles, etc.). But most of all I "search don't sort": it's very common that I "ripgrep" (from Emacs of course) inside my .org files. Even only using like that, without knowing much about it, it's still very useful.

I do version everything under Git so when I switch machines/countries my latest notes are one (ma)git command away.
