M-X Reloaded: The Second Golden Age of Emacs – (Think)
Then the slowness that you're seeing is probably Windows-specific, and that's why everyone else is telling you that Magit is actually fast.
WSL might make things faster.[1] IIUC, the problem is that starting new processes is much slower on Windows than on Linux/Unix and Magit relies heavily on that. This seems to have plagued Git tooling more generally but maybe this got fixed since then.[2]

Is it too late to learn emacs as a vim lifer?
You'll want to invest the time in learning Magit, which will change your life once you get the hang of it (and I was a heavy user of Fugitive in Vim previously!), and it's unlikely you'll find a better integration with GDB anywhere else on the planet than with Emacs, though I can't say that empirically. You just need to take the plunge and start learning it, then cut over and take the hit in productivity one day when you're feeling adventurous. You'll ultimately become far more powerful than you've ever been. Especially if you delve into elisp over time. I use Spacemacs, which is bloated and has bugs, but it has so many features that I haven't undertaken the massive endeavor to replace it from scratch yet.

On Desktop GUI Minimalism
> Even in this article just a few sentences after stating we should start from first principles he then jumps into the assumption of the "desktop".
Agree. Although I can see how the idea of "first principles" can be a very difficult starting point. A blank sheet of paper is a scary monster.
There's a huge breadth and depth of non-"desktop" GUIs out there, some (like smartphones) are even wildly successful. It's good to explore them for inspiration. Some of my favourites:
- Arcan (https://arcan-fe.com/about/) - I won't attempt to summarize, just dive in!
- SailfishOS (https://sailfishos.org/) - mobile UI focused on interaction through gestures / swipes; I've used it as my daily driver for a couple years.
- Speaking of mobiles, classic Nokia UIs allowed you to navigate to a specific item in the menu by pressing the corresponding digit on the dial pad. Once you learned where a particular item is, accessing e.g. your SMS inbox was extremely quick.
- Apple Watch / WatchOS (https://www.apple.com/watchos/) - I've always loved the idea of a device where one of the primary interaction methods was a wheel/dial of some sort. The watch even gives you context-sensitive tactile feedback.
- ZUIs in general (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zooming_user_interface) and the work of Jef Raskin in particular: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archy_(software) - this is the guy who helped design the Macintosh, but his other work took a radically different route.
- Magit (https://magit.vc/). Many common git operations are reduced to a couple of keystrokes; the obscure features are more discoverable, and the cumbersome procedures (such as rebasing, or staging individual hunks) become simple and intuitive. Also check out transient (https://github.com/magit/transient), which is the "UI toolkit" that powers Magit.

Not trying to start a rumble, but why emacs
This can be done most comfortably with org-mode in emacs. It offers a lot of features, and they all operate on plain text. There are also nice integrations for git and languagetool, but I guess those are less exclusive.

Introducing Consult-GH
How does this differ from https://magit.vc/ ?

Warp is a modern, Rust-based terminal with AI built in
I would rather see innovative tools that lessen our dependency on 50+ year old tech. This is still a glorified teletype. It uses AI to autosuggest git commands? Contrast with Magit[1], which (while it has a tiny bit of a learning curve, but also nowhere near 23M in funding) actually makes interacting with git a pleasure.

A warning to always remember that Obsidian Sync is potentially dangerous
Also was using Emacs (org-mode)[https://orgmode.org] for years with (Magit)[https://magit.vc] package for git. I feel org-mod is a precursor to Roam Research, Obsidian, et al. Hit the spot for years but I wanted editing on mobile so that’s why I’m here. :)

Is orgmode really that much better than an equivalent workflow using vim + other tools?
Besides all that, I'm also having to take care of my work duties. When I started my day earlier, as per usual, I opened gh-notify buffer to check all GitHub notifications. Issues, Pull-requests. Using code-review I quickly checked a few PRs, scrolled through the diffs, posted a couple of comments, and approved the PRs.

Perfect workflow with Emacs, Org and Cron
If I want to review a PR, there's code-review.

Can you settle this for me once and for all? What can emacs do that neovim+plugins can't?

GitHub and Doom Emacs
The second problem is reviewing PRs. The best Emacs package for that today is code-review.el. I briefly talked about it a while ago https://twitter.com/iLemming/status/1463317344437121025

Support to code review Bitbucket Cloud PRs
Happy to say that my initial goal to support Github, Gitlab & Bitbucket is finally coming together. This PR https://github.com/wandersoncferreira/code-review/pull/156 includes basic bitbucket review workflow to the package.
- [v0.0.5] Code Review package

[v0.0.4] Code Review package
As long as there are only two contributors (of which only one has signfiicant contributions), why not add it to ELPA? If the author reads this and is interested, send an email to emacs-devel.

Reply to comments in code review using wandersoncferreira/code-review
I'm trying to use wandersoncferreira/code-review to do GitHub code reviews from Emacs. As a review author, I'd like to reply to comments reviewers have made. If I on such a comment in the *Code Review* buffer, I get a new buffer where I can write my own comment. I do C-c C-c when I'm done. My comments then shows up in the *Code Review* buffer. But how do I submit my comments to GitHub. I have tried a number of M-x calls but non of them is working for me. How do I submit my comment replies? I really like the package by the way, It's great to be able to do code reviews from inside Emacs.
