    Doom Emacs is a fantastic distribution of Emacs which makes performance improvements on vanilla emacs, probably making it faster than your own configuration. The installation process and migrating your config would be simple IMO, so you may want to give it a try... https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/

    Doom emacs and Spacemacs are "emacs distributions": when installed you get an entirely pre-configured emacs with all of the nice bells and whistles already there for you. I personally started with spacemacs and then moved to my own emacs config later. One massive caveat for spacemacs is that it is highly intergrated with the "evil" package, which means it uses vim keybindings. While you can disable "evil-mode", the configuration will be greatly hindered without it.

    I haven’t used Emacs in about 5 years. Had to look up Doom Emacs.

    It looks nice.

    It may or may not be your long-term environment but for someone looking for Vim keybinds and an easy on-ramp, you can dip your toes via doom-emacs and enable the relevant modules. I'd start with :lang javascript[1] and web with +lsp and :tools lsp[2].

    I just had a very odd thing happen to me on GitHub.

    I accidentally closed my browser so I reopened it with Undo Tab Close, and GitHub's tab title was labeled "Your account recovery is unable to load" for a very brief moment. Then a GitHub error site with a pink unicorn loaded. The URL which was supposed to load was https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs which I had tried to load about 15 minutes or so.

    Maybe something like https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs can be a good idea if you don't want to start from scratch.
