          I never tried to use it but this tracks with what I’ve heard. This blog post is worth sharing: https://www.andrewt.net/blog/vim/index.html (Vim must die and Emacs must not take its place)

          Relevant excerpt:

          Emacs is a sort of medium-sized operating system in which an enterprising user could, in theory, build a text editor.

          I can’t recommend enough that everyone read this post, it’s great. Funnily enough, it seems that Microsoft of all companies did eventually make the terminal editor he was wishing for: https://github.com/microsoft/edit

          He (Andrew T) shared this new development on Mastodon a couple of months ago but I can’t find that post too easily. Maybe I’ll ask him to append a note about MS edit to the post.
