I've let go of my addiction to finding the best tool and settled on Emacs+Org-Mode (specifically with Spacemacs so I can use Vim keybindings).
Over the years I've tried so many tools, languages, workflows, and the only ones that stuck were the ones that were boring but timeless. I've not just been gravitating toward OrgMode for all my note keeping, but I've also gotten more and more into bash for much of my stuff.
There are downsides to that, of course. It's frustrating that I'm mostly limited to text-only things, for example. But it feels like any investment into bash/emacs+orgmode/emacs+tramp/emacs+? offers so much more than becoming reliant on app number <x> that quite possibly disappears or stagnates.

You wanted to say "Magit" in the last one :-)
Why do you say you're limited to text-only things? Org supports links, images, code blocks, spreadsheet-like tables and such. For me the experience of migrating to Emacs+Org was more of a liberating type.
