I object to Spacemacs not on the grounds that it works poorly, but on the grounds that if you throw all that into your config at once you will almost certainly have no idea what's causing problems or how to debug them. Once you have a decent idea how the parts fit together, you don't really need Spacemacs, IMO. I think the last time I tinkered with it at all was about a year and a half ago?
