I use doom emacs and have to say, it takes everything that I like about vim and adds to emacs, plus a lot of useful features that i would have to install myself otherwise that can be enable by just uncommenting a feel lines in the config file.

It's can feel a bit bloated at first but allows me to have the perfect IDE (for me at least) in a matter of minutes.

And the best of all is that I don't need to use the emacs keybinds if I don't wanna (and I don't).

One of the interesting aspects of humanity is how much people like given text editing methods. There's a handful of approaches and after learning one or two, people really figure out what works for them.

I am more than happy to say I like vim, but in the end you should use what you like best. Just done be surprised when I can write and edit a ton of text really fast while your nano session is comfortable, but slow.
