Emacs gets a bad rep for the complexity and learning curve, but I have seen new users adapt Spacemacs[1] pretty quickly. Emacs may be not the best text editor after the first week of usage, but after months or years there is nothing like it, especially when you learn elisp. I almost live in Emacs nowadays. I agree that vim key bindings are more efficient and I use evil mode[2] myself, but Emacs does everything except pure text editing better, regardless if you use vim or neovim. 1. http://spacemacs.org/ http://spacemacs.org/ 2. https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Evil https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Evil
