I switched to Helix 2 years ago after 28 years of emacs and didn't look back. My emacs config was huge, and I didn't enjoy all the tweaking I was doing to get LSPs to work the way I wanted. I had tried evil mode (and vile before that) without really getting comfortable. I think the Kakoune-style order clicked much better for me than vi descendants. Also, the multiple cursors in Helix work so much better than the equivalent emacs plug-ins. The only thing I really miss is tramp. I liked magit a lot, but jujutsu obsoleted that for me.
