interested in emacs as a whole, but have no idea what it can really do
https://emacsrocks.com has lots of quick/digestable demos. This one is a favourite https://emacsrocks.com/e13.html (the ending is great, stick with it).

Packages that make Emacs Lisp more pleasant
We will mainly look at 3 packages: s.el, f.el and dash.el. Two of these packages (first and last) are maintained by Magnar Sveen, who are also known for Emacs Rocks and What The .emacs.d (which are still great resources for learning and finding inspiration for your Emacs configuration!). We will also look at ht.el. These packages are used a lot in many of the Emacs packages you use in a day to day basis, like lsp-mode and rustic just to name a few. As most of these already have tons of examples in their READMEs, my main goal of this article is to inspire you to check them out. Hopefully you will know of one new package after reading this article :)

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.

Why another modal editing package in Emacs?
This looks like an interesting and valiant attempt to build something that improves on everything that came before it, but I did find the documentation lacking in clarity.
I'm experimenting with this package right now instead:
https://github.com/clemera/objed
and will wire up the keyboard shortcuts using RYO package to roll my own modal state.

Effective and efficient text editing using Emacs (Alternative to Evil)
Wow. meow project looks similar to objed but with more features. These projects are inclined to modal editing but not being vim. Thank you for suggesting.
-
What is your favorite text-editing package / command?
I like the semi-modal editing package objed (short for textual object editor)
-
atp - an experimental package for fast and intuitive text editing
This reminds me of u/clemera's objed and of versor.

Moving from evil to mostly-emacs keybindings
There are other modal systems for emacs. You even can construct your own with https://github.com/mrkkrp/modalka and https://github.com/Kungsgeten/ryo-modal. I have done that, these packages were extremely easy to use. I had a lot of fun designing the modal regime of my dreams. There are https://github.com/LouisKottmann/emacs-baboon, https://github.com/xahlee/xah-fly-keys (and its various forks) and https://github.com/clemera/objed.

I forgot about objed! Which is another very interesting project.

Guide-article: A Lisp REPL as my main shell
I didn't fully get what your interactive piping solution is, but I found that objed has a command oddly unrelated to the rest of its codebase: objed-ipipe, which does what I imagined Howard's piper to do but more intuitively to me. Though it seems you can write piper commands out in lisp so it's probably a superset feature-wise, I just never got started learning it.
-
What key binding scheme do you use to handle parentheses?
Well laid out, I fully agree. I think there is still a lot of potential to combine these two approaches in a better way, Emacs knows about many structures already but I think it could be more convenient to act on those. I tried my hand on this with objed which aims to make it easier to act/navigate on certain units (on demand or semi automatically).
What are some alternatives?
consult - :mag: consult.el - Consulting completing-read
aggressive-indent-mode - Emacs minor mode that keeps your code always indented. More reliable than electric-indent-mode.
meow - Yet another modal editing on Emacs / 猫态编辑
emacs.d - Personal Emacs configurations
expand-region.el - Emacs extension to increase selected region by semantic units.
lispy - Short and sweet LISP editing
dap-mode - Emacs :heart: Debug Adapter Protocol
configuration - My configs: OS setups, dotfiles, scripts and more.
xah-fly-keys - the most efficient keybinding for emacs
link-hint.el - Pentadactyl-like Link Hinting in Emacs with Avy
ryo-modal - Roll your own modal mode
