> I think algebraic effects are more general

Not an expert on algebraic effects, but I suspect they are both more and less general.

On the one hand, "algebraic" hints at some constraints in the name of static typeability. Such restrictions wouldn't be present in Common Lisp.

On the other hand, Common Lisp only has single-shot downward continuations, so you won't get, e.g. nondeterminism-as-an-effect.
