Emacs is terrible

It's simply impossible to become as quick in Emacs as one might be in vim. I've been trying, I've really been trying hard to like Emacs, because I want a decent IDE for Lisp. But it's just terrible. The editor is always getting in my way.

I have a new purpose in life. To clone vim in Common Lisp. This isn't reinventing the wheel, because whatever vi-mode they have in Emacs is still corrupted. A new viitor must surface, pure and handsome, with all the Lisp-friendliness of Emacs and all the awesomeness of vi.

I just wanted to get this off my chest, /prog/.

Anyone who takes the time to master either of these 70's freewares is wasting at least 200 hours of their lives they could use to learn how to code better instead of thinking they will magically become smarter by using deprecated cultural artifacts of hacker lore.
