Should I start with vanilla Emacs?
Vanilla. A good starting point for you is probably Emfy - https://github.com/susam/emfy

Making Emacs more approachable
I recommend Susam Pal's attempt to make Emacs more approachable for beginners: https://github.com/susam/emfy. He provides a line-by-line explanation of a simple config file.

Helix: Post-Modern Text Editor
That is true. But it’s pretty overwhelming for a lot of folks. I was a spacemacs user. I tried to rebuild what I liked about it. It was a lot, and I didn’t quite get it there.
I finally found a good compromise though. I started over with this confing: https://github.com/susam/emfy
From there, I only needed a handful of packages and a few dozen lines of config to get to an editor that was comfy.

VS Code – What's the deal with the telemetry?
I struggled to make the change. I think I tried half a dozen times to go from (neo)vim to Emacs and it never stuck. My problem was that I kept reaching for spacemacs and Doom Emacs, etc., right out of the gate, and I would be mystified by Emacs itself and Emacs Lisp as a result.
Two things helped get me into Emacs full-time (and this is after > 15 years of using vim):
1. I went step-by-step through Susam's Emfy Emacs config [0]. That helped me understand some of the basics at a foundational level. I extended that base configuration a little bit and became comfortable with the environment.
2. I then went step-by-step through the entire "Emacs from Scratch" playlist that System Crafters put out [1]. I pushed my personal configuration pretty far with that over the course of 2-3 months.
I eventually moved to Doom Emacs and married in pieces of my own configuration. That's been my daily driver for months now.

Ask HN: Should I learn Emacs in 2022?
Just have a weekend learning Emacs + Lisp and make your own opinion. This configuration (https://github.com/susam/emfy) is a great start. If you like it - use it, if you don't - throw it away.

Packages for Emacs beginner
Rather than one of the fat and opinionated "distros" (doom, spacemacs) I like emacs for you. It will set you up with a minimal config that you can learn from and add to as you go.
corfu
- Does eglot support autocomplete candidates with the same name?
-
anybody here do completion-on-demand, instead of automagically (dwim) ?
You could try corfu. It has auto-completion disabled by default and works most places with M-Tab. Or you could set a longish corfu-auto-delay (0.75s say), and let auto popup only when you stop to ponder a while.
- is it just me, or LSP mode is very slow in emacs?
-
Code completion candidates displayed in minibuffer
Corfu supports this. Or at least it allows you to move completions to the mini buffer which I find quiet useful.
-
Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
A substantial section of the community is using corfu instead of company, but I wouldn't say company is out of date by any means. In emacs 29 eglot will be a built in, which might act as a replacement for lsp-mode depending on what functionality you need.
-
Why does elpaca make emacs startup so much faster?
Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

How do I take priority from Evil's escape key?
I am currently using evil and corfu, but I want to configure such that pressing a single escape will invoke corfu-quit when its UI is active (because pressing "C-g" is harder).
-
Emacs lags when making the auto completion pop-up with corfu
A few days ago I found an unexplained slowness when using Corfu on Emacs 29 with pgtk. I stripped my configuration to basically just Corfu, and still had a noticeable delay. Maybe it is related to your problem. https://github.com/minad/corfu/issues/307

Replacing strings with Unicode symbols.
The most straight forward solution is probably the package company-math. (that's what I use but with corfu and cape)
