> Vscode is better and easier to learn, and has way better support for almost every languages. You missed everything you could possibly miss in your quest to master any coding editor. VSCode doesn't have support for any language. At least, not in the sense Emacs or Eclipse do, for example. VSCode model is to rely on language servers, which are programs external to VSCode. You can use them in Emacs too, for example. To contrast this, Eclipse, for example, has, built into the editor, a ton of Java-related parsing and handling. It even has a built-in Java compiler. So, to say that VSCode supports language X better than Emacs (or any other editor capable of running language server) is just plain ignorance. As for easier to learn: so what? -- It's even easier to learn to tie your shoelaces. It doesn't mean there's anything good (or bad) about the editor. It's completely irrelevant... > emacs is ridiculously slow in comparison Slow to do what? Using Emacs I'll be running circles around you using VSCode and taking a dozen coffee breaks a day watching you struggle to do basic text editing. VSCode isn't made for good programmers, it's not optimized for fast work. Watching people write code in VSCode is like being a professional dancer and seeing geriatric rehab for stroke patients trying to learn to dance as a way of getting their life back. Except, in the later case, the effort is commendable, and you want to do everything you can to help the poor elderly people, while in the former, you just feel disgust and disdain for the laziness and lack of motivation or insight.
