| I use Spacemacs. It's horrible. It's: - Bloated - Slow - Encourages you to lock your personal configuration into the Spacemacs ecosystem, rather than writing it in generic Elisp so you can easily extract it (why I still use it). - Introduces ridiculous abstractions that aren't necessary, just so they can put "spacemacs" in front of the variable name. - Hasn't released to the master branch in 2 or 3 years (!) - Consequenty breaks regularly when you use the rolling release (which you pretty much have to do) - Has an unresponsive owner who doesn't want to hand the project off to someone else (or hasn't found someone) - Sets up weird default behaviour that's very difficult to disable - Has awful defaults for most languages anyway. Their Python layer is terrible, the features are extremely limited and it often doesn't work. Doom is a much better starter pack. |
