This stuff all looks great, I can't wait to upgrade to 31 and then forget about all of it and just keep using Emacs the same way I have been for the past 20 yea

LOL. So true! Except for tree-sitter. That's something I'll be investing time in.

1. Upgrade to Emacs version +1 2. Remove MELPA packages that are now part of Emacs 3. Go to step 1 when new version comes out

The post not long ago about how far the built in autocomplete has come got me to trim down a bit of my config. Seeing that treesit stuff is getting folded in, I may make another effort at trimming down. It is crazy nice how invisible the native compilation became.

  Which autocomplete mode? fido-vertical-mode, completion-preview-mode, or something else that I should maybe look into? I switched from vertico to fido-vertical myself, but still use company for in-buffer completions. I tried corfu and completion-preview several times but didn’t get something I’m happy with from it.

    My humble apologies on missing this way back when. Checking my init, I seem to just have: ;; TODO: Remove? Maybe. For now, trying the following. (icomplete-vertical-mode 1) (setq icomplete-delay-completions-threshold 0) (setq icomplete-compute-delay 0) (setq icomplete-show-matches-on-no-input t) (setq icomplete-scroll t) It has been working fine. Took a bit of getting used to it not defaulting to arrow keys, but not that hard. And I think I see you can enable that, now.

I'm glad to see that people are working on emacs, as I use it constantly. That said, I personally don't see myself really using any of the stuff highlighted in this article. I've never really been in to advanced auto-complete or tree-sitter type of functionality. Some tasteful syntax highlighting and indentation support is fine but that's about as far as I go. That, org-mode, and magit is about all I use for coding and text editing. I also use notmuch for email.
