I am in my 10 years cycle in which I will go back to emacs. Emacs is so powerful but has a different terminology, and vscode was so easy and snappy...so I got accustomed to VSCode, but it is becoming slower and it has a lot of telemetry attached to it.
Is it time to give emacs another try
yes, stick with emacs even when the next shiny new editor appears and begins it's inevitable descent into becoming bloated and slow
I agree, this is why I still use vi :-) Sorry couldn't resist
Yes, the vi family of editors is just as valid a choice as emacs (and have arguably been the better choice for longer, it's just that personally I could never get on with modal editing)
Neovim has been game changing. Literally nothing I miss from VSCode or Jetbrains now
