I briefly tried Emacs both alone and with Spacemacs. Spacemacs configuration is impenetrable, specially if you're not a LISP fan and Emacs simply needs a lot of glue to work well with Evil. Even then one has to know and use quite a few regular keybinds. At that point it just wasn't worth the effort to me over using a more modern and straightforward editor.

> Spacemacs configuration is impenetrable, specially if you're not a LISP fan I find its configuration very nice — I don't actually use spacemacs regularly, but I miss how clean its package system tends to be over normal emacs configs. And everyone should be a Lisp fan, since it's the best language we've managed to come up with yet. > At that point it just wasn't worth the effort to me over using a more modern and straightforward editor. I don't think there's any editor more modern than emacs; there's certainly none more powerful. More straightforward? Well, nano is probably the most straightforward, but I wouldn't want to use it regularly.
