I second this recommendation, but I also was coming from a vim background, not a modeless editor like textmate or vscode ...

a few years ago (~2018?) I got excited about trying Org, and installed Doom Emacs on my (~18mo) old rMBP and it was slow-to-unusable. After ~30m of unproductive debug, i went back to vimwiki. The onboarding even with a distribution can be problematic.
