I'm switching to emacs from neovim
I started my Emacs journey with Spacemacs but it wasn't good since it's not actually Emacs - you need to learn entirely new stuff on top of Emacs stuff. In the end I gave up and settled with IntelliJ IDEA for Scala development. In five years I returned to Emacs, but started from very simple Castlemacs distribution, learning the meaning of each line, copying to my config only settings I needed, mostly related to configuring Emacs to behave properly on macOS. I don't bother with Doom Emacs, my startup time of 3 seconds doesn't bother me.

starter config for switching to emacs from neovim
I started from this https://github.com/freetonik/castlemacs, it's not been updated for a few years, but a good starting point if you're on macOS.

MOMACS: FINALLY A BEGINNER FRIENDLY EMACS
https://github.com/freetonik/castlemacs is the approach where I finally understood and was the missing tutorial for mac users. I've done the emacs embedded tutorial, but got stuck at that weird usage of ESC key as Meta key. That repo laid down the bridgework to me being comfortable with emacs. Still very sparse, but getting there!

How can I get the novice programmers I coach to adopt Emacs?
Lower the barrier to entry, maybe give them your configuration or some sort of starter-kit, I think castlemacs is good choice as it is quite simple and useable. Tell them to fork it on Github and use it.

Emacs in fifty keystrokes (and why some of you should just use Vim)
I think IJKL keys are probably better then arrow keys, see how castlemacs does it.

Fuzzy Finding with Emacs Instead of Fzf
> Emacs has better fuzzy finding
With due respect to Mr. Petersen, and as an Emacs user myself, I really can't agree. When I fire up fzf I just type and generally without any thinking I get what I want. Emacs takes some configuration to get to that point; the built in flex completion is, for whatever reason, not as robust in my experience.
In fact, in my current config I've been using fzf (or really skim) for completion within Emacs, via fussy: https://github.com/jojojames/fussy

What is the name of the nice light theme
Good idear, I asked in the repos https://github.com/jojojames/fussy/issues/37

Prioritize exact match in completion styles
As oantolin mentioned, fido completely overrides your preferred completion-styles which I called out here recently as a blocker to really adopt it if you care about performant fuzzy matching. I've done a lot of messing around with configuration in this space and my preferred setup is vertico + hotfuzz. You might also want to check out fussy which supports a bunch of different backends (FWIW, hotfuzz with the dynamic module enabled for me had the best combination of performance and behaviour, but fuz-bin and fzf-native are also great).

Why use Vertico/Consult if i can just use fido-vertical-mode?
Currently, vertico + orderless + fussy (https://github.com/jojojames/fussy) enables you to find something with both fuzzy matching style and orderless style. I tried with Fido, only fussy works, but not orderless.

I'm switching to emacs from neovim
It's not enough to have a different way to list search results, however. If you want the Telescope experience you need a fuzzy completion. I have been enjoying fussy

Fuzzy Finding with Emacs Instead of fzf
Someone kinda has with fussy. It supports multiple filtering and sorting techniques, including fzf compiled as a dynamic module for emacs, flx, flx-rs, and more.
