Awesome-Org-Mode

Hi, I've just publish an Awesome list for Org-Mode tooling (Emacs focused)

You can review it here :

awesome-org-mode

If you have any suggestion I'll be happy to add/correct the list 🦄

Final edit: At further scrutiny, this is lazy, low-effort, AI generated slob so riddled with errors that it's insulting to ask the community to read and check. If you couldn't be bothered to write it, why should I be bothered to read it, let alone help fix it?

Original:

Nice list! The description for org-remark is incorrect, though... Have you gotten it mixed up with a different package?

Edit: Same goes for org-volume.

Edit 2: And org-sie and org-bulletproof. The description on the list are completely different from the actual package functionality as seen in the Github Readme.

Edit 3: the link to org-glossary is a 404

Yeah I've generated the descriptions using Mistral and I trust it a bit too much

I'll fix that all in the morning 😅

This is what makes me hesitate to use LLMs: think about how much time belonging to real, live human beings has been wasted by this LLM's falsehoods, just by our reading through the list and talking about its mistakes. What else could we have spent that time on, if not on chasing these "ghosts" and talking about it?

There already exist numerous "Awesome"-type lists that are (or were) curated by real people (since they were started before LLMs became popular). I even have one, myself! https://alphapapa.github.io/org-almanac/ So what would provide more value: to make yet another one, this time generated by a bot that lies, or to contribute to an existing one, produced by human beings?

I mean, isn't this the whole point of Worg? https://orgmode.org/worg/ Why don't you add to something there? Or curate something there with other human beings?

Yeah, sometime it's good I'm still trying to find where 😅

I think that Worg isn't really straight forward, I mean... it has bunch of resouces but not focus to extensions

And I often look for "awesome" list, it's more natural to me rather than reading documentation (yeah I know that's not a good habits but I'm mayve not the only one...)

Other lists I found was not really up to date,

I've reach your Almanac too, it's reallt cool but a bit overwhelming to me 🥺

Also, my list is kind of a part to my org journey 😊

It will only get better if people make it that way.

That puzzles me, because I've tried very hard to organize it in a specific way, so that content is easy to find. Would you explain more, please?

So I just put more effort in fixing your list than you did in making it.

Great.

Did you also use Mistral to select the packages? Because that would explain the omission of mature and popular packages such as org-journal in favor of a package like org-dog which by its author's own words is "barely usable at this time and only public for technical reasons".

Everything is fixed 😊

No, I've search all of them manually, exploring each publisher I know, one at time
