After stumbling upon straight via Doom Emacs, I finally felt confident enough to built my own, from-scratch configuration, without worrying about the kind of constant issues my colleagues were experiencing on their Doom or Spacemacs setups every few months or sometimes every few weeks.
I knew very little about Emacs (27.1) at that time, yet it was an effortless endeavor to grow my own config:

I had literally zero hiccups with packages, though I haven't even froze them, while kept upgrading every few weeks with straight-pull-all.
I think the other big contributor to my pleasant experience was that I've vetted and studied every package, before I've added it to my config and tried to figure out what would it offer compared to built-in functionality.
I'm programming for 40 years by now and primarily in Clojure for the past ~7 years (using IntelliJ/Cursive), so I guess that helped a lot too...
