That is exactly my experience.
For me Emacs has always been a poor man's IDE.
The best replacement I got to get on UNIX to compensate for the lack of IDEs I already knew from PC and Amiga worlds.
Having migrated to JVM and .NET worlds reduced my Emacs use to machines where no other option is available. (Vi is only an option when Emacs isn't available)

But what happens when your IDE is discontinued with no easy way to migrate projects? That has bit me several times over the last twenty years -- so I only rely on established proprietary tools like Emacs these days.
