That's the thing. I attempted to get into the org productivity zone a while ago but it fell apart the moment I needed mobile support and syncing. Unfortunately, the mobile org clients of the time didn't support syncing well enough to be viable for my use case - not to mention that all the customization I had painstakingly set up within emacs didn't transfer to the mobile clients either. I suspect it's impractical to adapt the Emacs workflow to the task of syncing data across devices that is now the expected norm, and other services will have to rise up in its place. If all you have is a filesystem, up-to-date syncing across multiple devices is just a really hard problem (coming from someone who could never get Syncthing to work reliably). However, I have heard of the remoteStorage protocol, which is supposed to be an open-source syncing protocol that replaces Dropbox and the like, but it's still in its infancy. Maybe adding support for it as a plugin to sync directly from Emacs, instead of using a "dumb" polling filesystem monitor, could become an option. https://remotestorage.io https://remotestorage.io
