#2I was always bummed OniVim v2 didn't take off.
It was a native IDE but fully supported VS Code plugin system.

#3This would have been great when I was learning Lisp in school! I tried emacs but due to joint issues the keybinds were painful to use, so I gave up and did the course in vim+SBCL's REPL instead.

Which joint issues? Have you tried evil mode?

Pretty sure it's rheumatoid arthritis.

This was like fifteen years ago and I just went back to my working Vim setup I was already using for all my other classes.

#6That screenshot is super pretty. Very impressive!

#7C-x, C-c, C-w, C-s, C-k, C-g, C-] - goodness me, somebody absolutely does not give a shit what anybody thinks. I would never use this, but, somehow, I still love it.
I dare the author to rebind M-x as well.

In fairness, Emacs has long had cua-mode for rebinding C-c, C-v, C-x, and C-z to copy, paste, cut, and undo, so at least those changes are not too radical.

#9I would really like to see this kind of work be done upstream. Emacs still looks the same as it did decades ago despite other editors advancing and becoming more user friendly.

#10I would love to see a project that rebuilds the Emacs UI but keeps the underlying core to give it a modern facelift, some things in emacs blend together and are a pain for my eyes to figure out whats what. It would be nice if the UI was modernized but the core was left as-is. I'm reminded of some of my favorite editors that are niche being Lisp related ones, where if you held down ctrl it would show you shortcuts in the UI itself and what they lead to. I also always enjoyed Racket's import arrows and other small things that are visually amazingly impressive despite being so simple.
