I’m a Vim user who finds the ideas and promise of Emacs intriguing. The reason I don’t switch is your comment about performance, which is echoed by everyone who has used both editors extensively. I’m in Vim all day. A performance hit would hurt. I need my editor to be fast.
- akagr 5y agoI'd recommend a batteries-included Emacs distro like Doom to try out. That way, you don't spend a lot of time customising the editor before getting invested. Vanilla Emacs is plenty fast, but Doom will give you a closer to real world use case, with themes, LSP, Magit and other essentials built in.
