Nowadays I'm a normal Emacs user. Was a heavy emacs and org-mode user some years ago, with hundred of lines of customized lisp code to tweak Emacs. That said, looking at the repro, I still didn't get exactly what Neomacs is actually doing.

I would really appreciate some short Screencast, a bit more introduction, some examples, to get an idea what we are looking at. Maybe it is just me, but I feel that Neomacs is great and might get a user base, if potential users been able to understand within a few seconds what they are looking at.

You know, our attention span went downhill since YouTube shorts and TikTok videos

Sure! Screencast sounds like a good idea. Are you able to get Neomacs running? If so, the prebuilt one will start up with a intro buffer which is a good place to start (locally built one will need `M-x manual` to build the manual). There's also an online version at https://neomacs-project.github.io/doc/intro.html
