* tl;dr

emacs and orgmode totally rock. Made most of tech that came out of the
80s, emacs finally grew up to make all the bad enterprise tools from
the late 90s feel and look like garbage. Yeah, I mean you Java!

* Long version

Also, since it came up, I use emacs and orgmode for almost everything
both in the game and at work. Emacs has a great advantage that you can
make it do just about whatever you want. So even though I sometimes
use a code editor like Eclipse or Android Studio, I pretty much always
use emacs along side, or only. I've been using it for years.

Orgmode on the other hand, I just started using within the last couple
years. It is an addon for emacs (supposedly there's a way to run it
without with another build of the program). You can use it as a
planner, organize projects, build websites (I just started converting
mine last month), compose and send emails, export to pdf. If you
already use git, which most developers do, it makes the idea of using
something like Jira, Trello, PBworks, or Confluence feel like
something out of the late 90s because they're so slow. A text editor
with a git website backend can do so much more and faster than any of
these webtools.

* Nerd glasses on

Imagine orgmode with a websocket layer open to the git backend...
