A number of years ago, I reported a problem with its default Python mode and the way it automatically indents things. I got a response, which confirmed it was a problem. Then nothing happened and the report was eventually closed. For me, that was representative of several other issues I had encountered over the years. It's a great tool, but it is 1) old and sometimes baroque ("make-frame" comes to mind), 2) so large, even if you consider just the built-in functionality, that they seem to have problems keeping everything up to snuff. I am starting to move to Visual Studio Code. That's a painful shift, because I wrote lots of customizations in emacs, but, on the other hand, it has much better tools for many modern things I need to deal with (AWS, for example). I love emacs, but it needs a replacement -- something with the same basic architecture, but more modern concepts of how editors work and maybe an extension language easier to get buy-in for than emacs lisp. I had hopes for Atom, but... that looks pretty dead.
