Re:Emacs: The most successful malleable system by salawat on Wednesday April 15, 2020 @08:59AM (#22877161)
The problem with that Point of view is discoverability. It's the same issue I have with tweaking Vim to slowly provide some better ergonomics for my projecting, and has honestly been a consistent hurdle even when I was first learning computer suites like Word Processors and other office stuff.

I've never done well at navigating the initial humps of learning plugin/package ecosystems. Especially when I can't phrase what it is I'm looking for correctly, and I've grown reluctant to spend excessive amounts of time trying to dedup toolsets because it leads to pristine garage syndrome.

You have a system gleaming clean and ready to do things, but you're so exhausted getting things just so, you don't do anything with it.

It has nothing to do with the fact I like to blow away and remake systems on a regular basis, I swear. :P
