My second Emacs journey

After a long, dark time of using The Editor of The Beast (vim) or even worse, the editor of M$ (Visual Studio Code), I'm finally back to a proper editor. St. Ignutius, please forgive me for I have sinned.

Why is it my second journey?

When I first tried using Emacs, like two years ago, I have used frameworks, which were just not for me. Too heavy, complicated and unstable. So I went back to the bad editors. But I think I've grown into using Emacs.

Thank you, Void with i3

VSCode isn't the only satanic tool I've used. I also liked systemd for a long time. But systemd started to break down. That's why I became interested in GNU/Linux distributions with more traditional init systems. I have heard about Void Linux before, so I decided I would try it. After installing Void, I thought that the entire graphical environment was unnecessary and too burdensome. Therefore, I installed the i3 window manager. Once, also about two years ago, I was afraid that learning keybindings would be difficult. However, it turned out differently. It is very intuitive.

The pursuit of efficiency continues

When I saw that I could use less than 2GiB of RAM when browsing the Internet on Void, I thought that using an editor made in Electron was not very good. Also, I started liking lightweight, old-school things, that's why I made this Neocities website. So I tried switching to Neovim. But it was not good. That's why I remembered the good Emacs. I have tried the frameworks once again, but they were still unstable and overcomplicated. So I wrote my own init.el with help of some generators and forum threads.

I'm still not experienced with GNU Emacs, but I wrote this post in it.
