Modeless Vim
You can also use Hydra for Emacs.[1] Once I discovered how to configure Hydra, I made it a habit to make one for every new major mode I need to use.

Alternative terminal compatible keybinding for C-S-<arrow up>
Have you considered a hydra?

Can you explain the power of emacs please?
An Emacs specific example: I'm working on a few go projects at the moment and go requires recompilation after changes. Step one was finding auto-recompilers for my projects (I'm using both air and reflex in various projects). Step two was realizing that I spent a lot of time switching to the buffer where the output is printed, so I wrote a little hydra menu to make that easier. Then I found myself having to restart those processes each time I restarted Emacs, so I went digging and found detached to manage the processes. Then I got tired of having to hunt for where the detached output was displayed in my frame so dug into sidebars to manage the windows more effectively.

Is it possible to make god-mode turn off automatically after a command?
I think the goal of the hydra package is to provide such functionality.
-
Non-evil users: what modifiers do you use on emacs?
I would I also encourage anyone who does not want to use modal editing to look into repeat-mode, hydras, and key-chord.
-
Newbie question: What is a good strategy for personal keybindings to avoid conflicts, including with packages installed later on?
The C-c prefix is designed for you, the user, to use for your nefarious deeds. Some things that may help with both binding and knowing what key does what would be a menu such as hydras or transient menus (which apparently are part of Emacs now so that's new).
-
Too many keybindings
For the very same reason, I started to use hydras: https://github.com/abo-abo/hydra - see my config at https://github.com/novoid/dot-emacs/blob/master/config.org
-
How usable is Emacs with its default keybindings?
Hydra lets you define mini-modes with limited scope.
-
A good config with leader keys
general.el also works well with hydra.el. Here's my hydra for window operations - it activates when I press ,w:

Any fun ways to learn Emacs?
Using meow:https://github.com/meow-edit/meow I actually got keybindings in Emacs that are helix-like, so I use helix for certain projects and Emacs for others.
The muscle memory transfers well.

Helix: Release 24.03 Highlights
Thanks for the tip, meow looks interesting. I never got comfortable in evil-mode, but perhaps meow could be a gateway to trying emacs in anger.
Still waiting for kakoune/helix mode for gnu readline...

Emacs Commands I Got by with for Years
Also see Meow[1], [2], which adopts some ideas from god-mode.

Emacs from Scratch Part Two
You have to go further for ideal IMO.
Evil and evil-collection integrates pretty well, but Meow integrates perfectly and uses the action visible first approach.

Packages that you would like to be in emacs core ?
I think I'd rather hope for meow over Evil. It's close to Evil but embraces more of emacs' default bindings for calling commands.

Emacs Is My New Window Manager
https://github.com/meow-edit/meow
Modal editing with seamless emacs integration avoiding the need for evil-collection type packages.

Vile Mode (VIm Like Editing)
Repeat action (evil handles this very nicely). see: https://github.com/meow-edit/meow/discussions/414

Devil Mode for Emacs
There's also Meow[1], which I currently use. You have to configure it first to suit your keyboard layout, but there are pre-built configs [2]

Is it possible to make god-mode turn off automatically after a command?
I was thinking about this a little more and Meow has something known as keypad mode that basically lets you call key combinations then return to Normal mode. It behaves a lot like god-mode. I just tested it out and if you install Meow you can call keypad-mode from insert and then automatically return to insert mode.
What are some alternatives?
emacs-which-key - Emacs package that displays available keybindings in popup
god-mode - Minor mode for God-like command entering
vim-submode - Vim plugin: Create your own submodes
evil-collection - A set of keybindings for evil-mode
vim-hydra - Plugin similar to abo-abo's emacs hydra plugin
xah-fly-keys - the most efficient keybinding for emacs
smartparens - Minor mode for Emacs that deals with parens pairs and tries to be smart about it.
kakoune.el - A very simple simulation of the kakoune editor inside of emacs.
projectile - Project Interaction Library for Emacs
doom-meow - A meow module for Doom Emacs
multiple-cursors.el - Multiple cursors for emacs.
ryo-modal - Roll your own modal mode
