Damn this hits it really close to home for me. I've been mulling on switching to arch linux for quite a while for pretty much the same reasons. I already spend my life on a terminal and linux servers.

Main reason for me not to do it is now down to evernote + ios (as user, not dev), which are quite key to my (work|think)flow.

It will happen eventually

Just pick a browser solution and the transition is easier!

Also: You could see the new iPad with ipadOS as a org/computer replacement, and use the Linux hardware to work and tinker.

That's fine for the tools that I want to use less but not the key ones. For me using evernote from a browser would be similar to running my editor from a browser. Technically possible, but not something you want to do every day.

I need a proper desktop replacement with keyboard shortcuts, instant sync across devices and seamless mobile experience.

iPad with mosh and a remote instance is also something i've played with and need to research more to see if it could be a full on replacement
