Can you explain why? I use Spacemacs (and like it) but have always been curious about Doom Emacs.

Neovim has built in support for LSP. I'm guessing Neovim's support for LSP is also very good by now. You have been using the original Vim?

Are you comparing Vim with emacs-27 or earlier? Or are you comparing Vim with the unreleased (but still very usable) Emacs 28? Emacs 28 is a bit more zippy due to the native elisp compiler. I think you will be pleased with the performance boost!

Doom vs Spacemacs - I found more bugs and performance issues in Spacemacs. I encountered a few errors in Doom as well but nothing serious. Doom was a lot quicker to set up as well.

I have been using original Vim.

I use Emacs 27 from Debian stable. Will look into 28, thank you.
