At = that point, I would use logseq.

While I do love Org mode like you I cannot see it comparable to many
other free software that are dedicated for note taking or project
planning and offer so much better interface, clean of disturbances.

Well maybe it solves, maybe not, I rather think it does not solve as
good as many other applications.

Many applications work on mobile phones, Emacs does work on mobile
phone but not as good and not as accessible application. Many other
applications solve planning and TODO, tasks actions, project so much
better on mobile phones and some work on desktop and mobile phones
together. People use mobile devices for planning today maybe 50% even.

I like the enthusiasm.=C2=A0 I also like that it will take next 30 years of fun.

I guess Emacs manual may be purchased from FSF.

Why not.

Well, it is popular more among advanced users.

To install such software is easy. It needs consent and approval by GNU
project.

It should be there. Because there is none, people go to Reddit,
Stackexchange, etc.

Here are good options to consider and all free software:

Question2answer:
https://www.question2answer.org/
https://www.question2answer.org/qa/

Scoold:
https:= //scoold.com/ and how it looks like: https://live.scoold.com/

Talkyard:
https://insightful.demo.talkyard.io/latest

And that other first option too.

Once back in time I made it myself.

It should be made under GNU control and without any account and
tracking. Just ask the question. Whoever is supervising the website
can remove those spam entries.
