It's slow and buggy and difficult to wrangle to the needs of modern text editing yea?

Look I live in emacs. I cannot explain to you why this is such a shitty experience. I assume there are random assholes around the world who are holding emacs back so they can view their email from a repl or some bullshit.

I don't think your complaints are a common experience.

I've used neovim for the last 10 years, but before that I used emacs with R for many years at work and it was great, certainly not slow.

Can you be more specific about your complaints? It's open source software. If there are bugs we can fix them and submit a pull request.
