Things you can do inside emacs (and have all this be tightly integrated so you can copy and edit data seamlessly from one "application" to another, without leaving your editor): - browse the web - read/send/edit email, RSS news, usenet - chat on IRC and other chat networks/protocols - use org-mode to edit notes in an outline format with hyperlinks, executable code blocks, a spreadsheet, etc - use magit, one of the most powerful git interfaces - read and edit PDFs and LaTeX with visual LaTeX symbol substitution right in the editor - program and configure the editor in elisp, with a whole elisp ecosystem used for every plugin (this alone would make me switch away from any other editor to emacs) - use thousands of other scripts and plugins that are the result of 50 years of development - absolutely everything customizable to the nth degree, as emacs is more of an editor construction kit than a mere editor
