+1 for Spacemacs. Former vim user, now using smacemacs for past few months.

I found a number of things just work way better in emacs than in vim. For example, web-mode was a revelation for me. I could never get vim to get syntax right in mixed HTML-JS files.

Ability to edit very large files with ease was another one in favour of emacs. Vim would freeze up for a seconds or two while saving even half a megabyte file.

helm and family blew my mind away.

Another win spacemacs is it does not hide default emacs functionality. All default emacs keyboard shortcuts would always work, so learning vanilla emacs is still helpful.

Once I got to know spacemacs shortcut layout, it was surprisingly intutive.

(YMMV)
