I picked up spacemacs earlier this year but have since switched to Doom emacs: https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs it's smaller, faster, and you configure it in a way that's closer to vanilla emacs. The size makes it more tractable to learn. The creator & primary maintainer is more active, funny, and helpful than the spacemacs maintainer who I believe is on hiatus.
I wish someone had told Doom about it before I picked up spacemacs so maybe this post will benefit past-future-me.
- maximilianroos 6y agoThanks! It looks good. I'll check it out more.
- cutler 6y agoI've been using Spacemacs for Clojure development for years but stable has been stuck on the same version for ages so is it actually maintained?
- Graziano_M 6y agoYou should switch to develop. They are working on release 300 and there are commits being merged daily.
- cutler 6y agoIt's been thaty way for years so not very encouraging. With develop I can't just click Update Packages. Any advantages these days of staying with Spacemacs over Doom?
