#24pricing page does not at all make clear what isn't included in the free version. you have to pay a monthly subscription for "language support"? does that mean it doesn't "support" languages in the free version? and what does "language support" mean?

#25Are there any plan in forseeable future (10 years) to port Rune to other platforms (win, mobile/tablet, ..)?

#26I may check this out as I'm between editors currently. Liked zed for a bit, until a blog post showed me how they were installing npm and who knows what else on my PC without me knowing. Used Code for a bit after until suddenly they started requiring AI dependencies just to run the IDE. So hey, why not try something new.
There's a zed minus the iffy bits fork called gram. Haven't used it though, I'm still stuck in Emacs trying to figure out how to get out.

The issue with emulating Emacs is that the editor key bindings are not the feature. The feature of Emacs is basically an IDE totally tuned to how you want it, plus the fact that then you apply the same ecosystem to a great number of text-adjacent applications - Org, E-mail, code, markdown, etc.
Someone saying to me "hey, you can copy with M-w!" just really doesn't appeal.
Vim seems more about an out-of-the-box "language" for typing, so I can see how you can emulate this more sanely.
