Do your emailing in org-mode like @robhicks https://youtu.be/RlZsCKN6cqc

My flow is a bit more org centric than email centric, but still a good example.

@robhicks @dekkzz76 ugh, painful. does mbsync (that's what I use, is that what you used, i already forgot from the video) work with oauth2?

I would be in a world of hurt if i couldn't read email in emacs any more.

In my workflow, I capture the email i want to respond to, do the editing in some org file, then use org-mime to htmlize a nice ascii and html email that gets sent. This way responses can be TODOs in my org files. Sending net new is similar, but not capture from the start of mu4e.

@dekkzz76 @robhicks yeah, I use application password for my google workspace accounts and mbsync.

@dekkzz76 @robhicks For outgoing mail I have a local postfix server and it deals with smtp auth to the correct account for each sent mail.

Chris Maiorana says he might have been wrong about org-roam, giving it another go. https://youtu.be/zRT4vNh-kV8

@dekkzz76 org-roam in particular I believe.

@dekkzz76 I dunno, overkill makes it sound like a behemoth. I totally get the aversion to the sqlite component, but It doesn't feel super big and overarching to me. Denote or Orgrr might work for me, they just didn't exist when I found org-roam and now I'm comfy. I want directories and the initialization of new files with templates.

@dekkzz76 that's great!

org-transclusion is so magical.

@nickanderson@fosstodon.org avatar

@dekkzz76 I have a bunch of content that is in small chunks, e.g. examples. Instead of copy pasting those and duplicating them as I want to re-use them in some new text I can simply translcude them and all that content will be in the exported text.

It's a nifty magic trick to show colleagues.

Getting started with org-mode

I think that is great, and being able to use my preferred formatting for posts awesome, but I have to admit, the combined markdown for links is perhaps a /little/ over the top e.g.: [[{{< relRef other-page-name >}}][Link Text]]
I almost feel sorry for the round brackets who somehow weren't invited to this bracket fest, but perhaps the round brackets were already occupied keeping my running.

@hl do you give Hugo the direct org file? I tend to use ox-hugo to export to markdown which Hugo then builds from.
