A Late Night Rant About Emacs
You could manage such a system with tools like Chemacs, https://github.com/plexus/chemacs2
- need package(plugin) and resources suggestions for Note taking setup - New to emacs

How to Make Emacs Look Cooler with Simple Customization
https://www.spacemacs.org/ is a layer on top of emacs that solves a number of shortcomings including a more modern UI. If you use https://github.com/plexus/chemacs2, you can always run emacs and spacemacs independently, both for learning, troubleshooting etc.
- Init file anywhere?
- How do you manage several similar emacs configs?
-
Using init.el as a wrapper to a primary config
have a look at how https://github.com/plexus/chemacs2 does this sort of things.

Is it worth renouncing evil and becoming a good person?
I asked this same question a year and half ago and since that post I started reading Mastering Emacs by Mickey Petersen which was really helpful, I used Chemacs to keep my evil config around in case I give up. But I ended up dropping that config and I realized I wasn't really into modal editing. It took me one month to get used to my new config but that was worth it, everything in Emacs became consistent.
-
Starting fresh?
Perhaps the biggest game changer in my new init file is chemacs2. This allows one to choose one among many possible ".emacs.d" directories to use for the emacs that is being invoked.

Flakes aren't real and cannot hurt you: using Nix flakes the non-flake way
The project uses this overlay: https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay
What that means is if something is broken in Emacs, the community will fix it, and all I need to do is run `nix flake update` to grab the latest commit and then `nix run .#build-switch` to alter my system. Easy.
Thanks for the heads-up on the 404s! I've fixed those links.
In re: to org-agenda, I don't use that as much anymore. But I heavily, heavily using org-roam w/ org-roam-dailies everyday to build my own networked graph of notes. For tasks, nowadays I just use simple docs for projects and Asana to keep a catalog of everything.

NixOS&(Home-Manager) Flake/Overlays Help
Im a newish NixOS user, Ive used it like 20 times before but always quit because I couldnt debug errors, trying not to give up for the 20th time this time lmao; so Ive been trying to learn how to use overlays & flakes for a couple of days now. The ones I want to use/enable are: - Emacs-Overlay - Spicetify-Nix
- My First Impressions of Nix
-
Which package manager should I use?
Nix offers the same advantage through the use of emacs-overlay. Besides, Nixpkgs contains more Linux packages than any other distros. Depending on the user's needs, Nix is another option.
-
It looks like the kellyk Emacs PPA is no longer maintained. Are there any alternatives?
You can use this overlay to get the latest https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay
-
Will any emacs package manager let me audit packages before installing them?
Depending on your goals, emacs-overlay is also worth a look.

How to use Emacs 29 Tree-sitter?
You can install Nix on your mac and use https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay/, which supports all the existing tree-sitter-based major modes OOB.
-
Emacs 29 is nigh What can we expect?
Its great to see both eglot and tree-sitter being merged. However, I am unhappy about the state of 'emacs configurations/distributions' right now. I have been using Doom Emacs, but the development is pretty much stalled there [0], and I don't think there is any distribution that is keeping up with these cutting-edge features (compared to the NeoVim ecosystem, let's say). Somehow it feels like I was seeing a lot more activity about Emacs configurations two-three years ago.
> Compile EmacsLisp files ahead of time
Ooh, this is interesting. Hoping to see a derivation in https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay soon.
[0] I am not complaining though as Doom was the main author's personal config from the get-go. I am just pointing out a void.
