Back in the day I had to use XEmacs as it was more advanced as plain Emacs.

After IDEs finally started being a common thing in UNIX systems, I left Emacs behind back to IDEs.

Still I have almost a decade where Emacs variants and vi were the only option, ignoring stuff like joe, nano, ed, even more limited.
