@256k@merveilles.town Disclaimer: I'm a happy Emacs user myself (mostly for Org-roam these days). But this part, no no no: "What I can say with confidence is that Emacs is not for tourists. You cannot switch to it with the expectation that you will have a good time right away. No. That will not work. There simply is no shortcut to excellence." This sounds like plain gatekeeping to me, especially with that last sentence that sounds like a cheap slogan. And I strongly disagree with the stance, at least in the way he puts it. It's not because something is hard to do for a beginner that it's *excellence*. Those are two different things. Pure GNU elitism at work here. Edit: I find that this message kind of sounds harsh but was not meant to, thanks for sharing the link as it was an interesting read anyhow :)
