i hope that one day i’ll have a computer fast enough to run emacs crisply.
snark aside, it’s slower than every other modern editor i’ve tried (after i get it configured). part of it is no doubt what i’ve done to it, but shit, if it’ll take me 2 years to learn it and turn it into something equal parts fast and functional then i’m probably not the target audience.

- dmm 4y agoemacs supports async io concurrency and some form of threading. Modes have to be designed in a way that takes advantage of them though.
- ParetoOptimal 4y agoYes, but tryout elfeed and call `update-feeds` and you'll see that's not a hard blocker on it's own.
