This is awesome. But one question as I'm not so familiar with emacs: Why do they punish someone when trying to use emacs but not vi? Why do you see emacs as something works?

[-] mumblerfish@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Not sure, but I think emacs at least used to have a reputation as a resourse hog and bloated. So maybe that?
