I've been using Emacs' lsp-mode (https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-mode) for professional Python development for months now and it's been a great experience. It requires a little more work than I'd like to get it working with virtual environments (making sure the LSP server process is running in your venv, mainly), but I would argue that's a problem with the Python ecosystem, not lsp-mode itself.

And for statically typed languages (I've tried Rust and Go) the lsp-mode experience is flawless and works out of the box.

I switched from emacs to Pycharm for python development, out of frustration with what most packaged tools was getting me, relative to what PyCharm did with no effort and little frustration at all. Too many half-maintained packages, put together, fighting incompatibilities.

However, LSP really may change that.

LSP will definitely change that.

I've tried lsp for Go and found it a bit lacking at this point. For example, does lsp for Go in Emacs allow searching for the implementers of an interface? Or the interfaces that a type implements? Guru is great with things like that but the switch to modules broke it and it doesn't look like it's ever going to be updated.

This one is supported - lsp-find-implementations

The other one I am not sure (I am not a go user). If it make sense it will be added to the server.
