Just use nVIM
Does support internal links, md rendering and a useful search over all files without having to configure everything for three weeks? Because those features were what made me switch after a few years of just using vim.
Also having dynamic todo boxes on my daily notes, collected from all my ~1k notes.
Those are actual questions, not sarcasm, btw. I have never used nvim. I was under the impression it was more or less just vim.
Emacs supports whatever you want and more with org-mode. It's an upfront investment but you can use your config until you die.
Ever used org-roam? It's org-mode plus obsidian features. Absolutely love it.
Yeah I should have said it explicitly but that's what I was referring to. I have an org-mode / org-roam setup.
It doesn't quite fit your requirements, but org mode from emacs is very close.
.org files instead of .md, and the preview does require a bit of config, but it's not as bad as some make it be, especially if you pickup a preconfigured emacs "distro" (like doom emacs for example) in which case I think it's just a feature flag to set to on.
Org is also very appreciated for it's TODO features, which you seem to make a big use of.
It probably isn't a match for you due to the markdown requirement, but I'm mentioning it just in case you didn't consider it in the past.
Thanks for the recommendation. I knew org-mode exists, but I've only ever used emacs for proof-assistants which have no other ide-support. I guess I should at least give it a try.
