Honestly I don't think Emacs is an obstacle to people who use Vim. It's an obstacle to people who use IDEs

- ruleabidinguser 10y agoI use(d) vim and see EMacs as annoying.
- cat199 10y agoI use vi and emacs and see vim as some odd vi that is trying to be emacs but ends up being neither.
- kahrkunne 10y agoIt might be annoying but it probably wouldn't be an "obstacle", especially considering things like evil-mode exist. That's how it went for me, anyways. From vim user to trying Emacs because it has some feature that I need to becoming a full-time Emacs users with evil-mode
- aidenn0 10y agoIMO, It's an obstacle only to people who don't use IDEs. Someone who uses e.g. visual studio for C++ isn't going to balk at the suggestion of installing IntelliJ for Java, and I doubt that they would balk at the suggestion of installing SLIME for lisp. In my experience it's people who live in their editor (sublime, vim, &c.) that balk at the idea of installing an IDE as the first step for using a new language.
