I tried out Lem a couple times, and I was impressed, but couldn't see myself moving to it. What was impressive is how starting it up just.. worked... with LSP type stuff... I was editing Rust and that all functioned. Not as featureful as my Emacs setup, but further along than I expected. And the keybindings were mostly familiar.
But so many of the things I now rely on -- company mode, treemacs, vertico, etc. are not there. The value in Emacs is the huge community of things.
Also I had some instability each time I tried it -- buffers filling up with Common Lisp backtraces, etc.
Still I really want to see some advancement in this arena, because the actual implementation of GNU emacs leaves a lot to be desired in 2024. The packages overtop of it are nice, but the core editor blocks and pauses too much.

- cmrdporcupine 3y agoThat's.. sort-of similar. Treemacs is more project based, not CWD based. That seems more like "dired in a left-panel." Useful though.
