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...

Ask HN: Best way to experiment with text text editing?
To build on what others are saying about Emacs, if you start exploring the package ecosystem, you're going to see quite a lot of really interesting packages that are related to improving/experimenting with the UX of editing text. While I'm not endorsing anyone in particular, I think what this list does show is just how easy it is to do pretty much whatever you want in Emacs;
https://karthinks.com/software/avy-can-do-anything/
https://github.com/jyp/boon
https://github.com/clemera/objed
https://github.com/jmorag/kakoune.el
https://github.com/meow-edit/meow/
https://github.com/xahlee/xah-fly-keys
https://github.com/Kungsgeten/ryo-modal
https://github.com/emacsorphanage/god-mode
Emacs 29 also now has treesitter and LSP mode integration built-in, a compilation mode, a comint mode for REPLs, excellent file browsing packages (I use dired/dirvish), and a few other killer features.
Now, if what you truly dislike are "quirky editors", prepare yourself for a world of hurt because vanilla Emacs departs quite a bit from "modern" text editors. I struggled with this for a while, but eventually by buying into the paradigm, I now feel that when emacs try emulating "modern" IDE features like autocompletion, LSP, and DAP UI, I feel like it's a regression, not a progression. The point here is that you might have an "idea" of what good initial UX and lack of quirks would look like, but Emacs might change the way you think.

How do the neovim plugins for OrgMode and Magit compare with the real thing?
If emacs had a layer for kakoune as comprehensive as evil, I think it would be a no-brainer, but such as it is, kakoune.el is the closest we have which isn't quite was I was hoping for.

Best emulator for Kakoune editing?
Problem is, unlike the evil package linked above, which was last updated 6 days ago, the only package I've found for Kakoune is this one, which was last updated like a year ago.

First thing you configured when started using Emacs
I set up https://github.com/jmorag/kakoune.el and made some aesthetic changes, i think that EXWM came soon thereafter

Helix - A kakoune/neovim inspired text editor written in Rust
Out of curiosity, what is it that makes you want to change from Kakoune? Perhaps something like terminal emacs with kakoune.el could be of interest to you.

Any ideas that would help in incremental reading?
I don't fully understand what you want - but about creating cards while you read https://kakoune.org could be interesting (there's a simple elisp clone: https://github.com/jmorag/kakoune.el). That way you can move along words while reading and if you want to turn a phrase into a card you can simply hold shift to continue marking the desired words and then yank them to somewhere.
- Just a random question . Is there any emacs distribution like kakoune ?

A Consistent Structural Editing Interface - karthinks.com
The current state of things is pretty underwhelming and convoluted. In 2018 I designed a system on top of thingatpt that was not married to any parser (can use regexps or use tree-sitter or anything else to build things) or to any editing style (modal vs. non-modal). I'll probably never complete it due to a lack of time/interest, but it still seems to me that what's needed is something like this, a library in the middle that could be used for any package like this. Not sure why no one else seems to see how good thingatpt could be.

The State of Structural Editing in Emacs?
I've planned to use treesitter in things.el for a long time, but another package will likely become useful long before I have time to do this.

Effective and efficient text editing using Emacs (Alternative to Evil)
I've designed my own text object/motion system that I hope will eventually bring more "useful" composability to any Emacs user that wants it (see things), but right the implementation is buggy and incomplete.
What are some alternatives?

evil-textobj-tree-sitter - Tree-sitter powered textobjects for evil mode in Emacs
xi-editor - A modern editor with a backend written in Rust.
gopcaml-mode
ryo-modal - Roll your own modal mode
xah-fly-keys - the most efficient keybinding for emacs
kakoune - mawww's experiment for a better code editor
link-hint.el - Pentadactyl-like Link Hinting in Emacs with Avy
rpn-c - Calculator environment using rpn-l, a language based on reverse polish notation.
