`org-toggle-link-display` not working in Debian stable release with .emacs file

If I run emacs -q, then org-toggle-link-display works. But if I open emacs GUI, even with the complete .emacs file commented (;;...), then, it does not work. Running that instruction, link display ...

I often need to copy a region of an Org Mode file as GitHub Flavoured Markdown. Today, I finally wrote an Emacs Lisp function to help me do that the way I like.

Copy an Org Mode region as Markdown - Marcel Kapfer

A little helpful function for copying Org Mode to clipboard as GitHub Flavoured Markdown using Pandoc.

I have no idea how or why but on Sunday, I accidentally deleted hundreds of lines in my contact management.

I was notified by my setup and was able to revert the problematic change within minutes. 👍

Last week, I published this blog post about the #Emacs tools I use to help manage my #freelance business. Lots of #orgmode and things about email, #programming, #writing, etc. What tools did I miss? https://arnesonium.com/2026/04/emacs-freelance-command-center

Emacs as the Freelancer’s Command Center

Freelancing for small businesses and organizations leads to a position where you are juggling a number of projects for multiple clients. You need to keep track of a number of tasks ranging from software development to sending emails to project management. This is a lot easier when you have a system that can do a bunch of the work for you, which is why I use Emacs as my freelancer command center. I would like to share some of the tools and workflows I use in Emacs to help me keep on top of multiple clients’ needs and expectations.

Title: P0: I learned how to write tests in pytest
I learned how to write tests in pytest - popular library and difference between flat and src layout of python project.
1) fixed Emacs: message of found auto save file was hidden by another messages
2) I learned Elisp code extension mechanism called "advice" it can add code before/after/around any Elisp defined function.
Another, more natural, mechanism called hooks.\n#dailyreport #python #emacs #elisp #orgmode #mastadon #bash #script

I have been planning it for a while, and, today, I finally sat down and wrote some instructions for patch reviews for Org mode.

Hopefully, it can assist new contributors willing to help Org mode development.

Tried to encrypt a few dozens of #orgmode files amid about 500 orgmode files. All are also agenda-files. But constructing the agenda now hangs. All files have been decrypted properly (I get an echo in the minibuffer). Anyone has experienced the same?
