Comment on Ask HN: Is there editors and IDE crisis?

Comments

Weird, I was just having the opposite thought the other day. Emacs seems to be going through an explosion in productivity. There are so many new improvements as of late that it's hard to keep up.

Byte compilation has sped things up, tramp makes working with networked drives a breeze, magit makes git a breeze, LSP (language server mode) is improving interactivity with your code. Org-mode is an amazing markdown language and knowledge base, task manager, etc. The documentation is good for just about everything I come across. Integration with slack, mastodon, gemini, etc. Even the games and browsers are nice.

My friends that use vim seem to be comfortably moving along so I'm sure things are similar there.
