C-x C-f M-n the eev way

Not an issue, but a comment

Depending on your needs, you may not need org-mode for simple linked notes. That's because there is a standard emacs keybinding that lets you open the file path under your cursor.

=======================

I prefer the eev way:

(use-package eev
:ensure t)

~/Documents
M-s-f
will become:

(find-fline "~/Documents")

then
M-e
It will open the ~/Documents
folder

/tmp/new_file
M-s-f
will become:

(find-fline "/tmp/new_file")

then
M-e
It will create the "new_file"
if it does not exist

Apart from that,
You can do all sorts of things with eev
Many magics are way better than org-mode
