@zen3ger How does doom-emacs compare to spacemacs?

@freemo I don't have much experience with Spacemacs, I installed it once it was slow as hell so I went back to my own evil-emacs configuration. Doom is faster, everything just works. It really has a great out-of-box experience with pretty much IDE like "install plugin X" and done configuration. Workspaces and projects are awesome... and the splash screen is way cooler

@zen3ger I might give it a try. Does it do what spacemacs does and popup the hotkey continuation choices as you type it so you can learn as you go?

@freemo yes, all the spacemacs magic is there, even the bindings are ~90% the same. Or at least what I can remember. It really worth a try, especially if someone was rolling her/his own evil-mode config, like I did for 3 years.

@zen3ger Thanks ill check it out.

@freemo I now use doom emacs, after having started with spacemacs. I found spacemacs to have long load times and unstable dependencies. Upgrades in spacemacs were always a gamble.

The key bindings are similar. No matter where I go next with emacs, I will almost certainly take the key bindings with me.

@wes I might need to give it a try. I do sometimes notice that spacemaks might take a second to respond to something. But it hasnt been a problem yet. I could see it getting annoying though.

@mmstick I tried it, surprisingly good for microsoft. But otherwise wasnt particularly impressed enough to use one of their products. I might keep it installed though for taking a peek from time to time to compare.

@freemo The Sublime-style multi-cursor editing is the killer feature, in addition to extensions. For Rust, there is nothing that works better than VS Code + rust-analyzer

@freemo you made the poll just as an excuse to say this yet again, didn't you?

@namark I wouldnt need an excuse to say it as many times as I'd like :)

@fahrni This one isnt so much for IDEs as it is for Vim/Emacs land (their all flavors of those two)

@kumicota cool I'll check it out

@mandlebro yes, yes it is
