Emacs Advent Calendar 6: elfeed-tube, popper, consult-dir, gptel and more
popper: Summon, dismiss or cycle through "popup" buffers. Like drop-down terminals (guake, yakuake etc) but in Emacs and for any buffer, not just shells.

Window Management - share your display-buffer-alist
Karthink's config, good integration with the popper package
- popper: Emacs minor-mode to summon and dismiss buffers easily.

916 Days of Emacs
I love emacs, but agree with many of your criticisms.
Emacs can be slow. I don't use LSP, so can't comment on that, but it's definitely slow on long lines with syntax highlighting.
I don't use TRAMP for exactly one of the reasons you mentioned: it can hang Emacs. I want to avoid that at all costs, because I pretty much live in Emacs.
Handling buffers is tedious, but you can improve that through various packages, like popper[1]
Depending on what problems you run in to and your skill level, it could be tricky to debug elisp programs. However, compare that to when you run in to some bug in VSCode... how are you going to debug that? You'll probably have to submit a bug report and wait for the developers to get to it (if they ever do)... how is that better than emacs?
Also, remember that you don't have to go it alone in troubleshooting the issues you run in to with emacs. There's a whole community ready and willing to help.
Despite the downsides of emacs, I still use and love it. Every editor has downsides, and emacs is no exception. Its positives far, far outweigh the negatives for me. There's just so much more that it can do than other editors, and it's far more customizable. I very much doubt I'll ever seriously consider switching to another.

Emacs 29 is nigh What can we expect?
Thanks for these tips! I'll explore tabspaces, apheleia, async-shell-command (and the Go lib) — all of those are new to me.
> Can you give a specific example of something you had trouble with?
I hoped to recreate multiple long-running terminal sessions in splits and tabs, similar to functionality I now use from:
Neovim (plugin): https://github.com/akinsho/toggleterm.nvim
VS Code (built-in): https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/terminal/basics#_managing...
I just found “popper”, which didn't exist the last time I looked. It seems like a pretty close substitute:

Wrangling windows
I find it pretty unintuitive how magit, vterm, rg, and other commands that want to open a new window will interact with a multi-window setup. Sometimes they'll use an existing window, sometimes they'll make a new one. I prefer having things be predictable: terminals always go here, search results go there, and so on. I was looking for ways to tame this, and I found purpose, popper, shackle, and of course, directly hacking on display-buffer-alist.

Why Neovim is My Text Editor of Choice
As a software engineer, choosing and understanding your text editor is important part of your work, as it impacts your productivity and workflow efficiency. It's like choosing the perfect tool for any trade - you need to know what tool to use and how to use it effectively if you want to excel. For me, I use Neovim as my editor and I have been using it for a little over a year now.

Let's See Your Terminal
This got me thinking about my recent pivot, my switch to Neovim by way of LazyVim to write most of my code, and using tmux to keep terminal states alive after closing a session.

Aftermath of switching from VSCode to Neovim
All these thoughts I've shared, I would have them on occasion - but ever since I switched to Linux and Neovim, my curiosity has been through the roof. Switching over to Neovim and Linux was a not so fun weekend of configuration and spending half a day getting my work's local dev environment running on my new OS (which no one has tested development on). But I now have a deeper understanding of the tools I use, and have a text editor configured to be the most optimal for the way I want to use it.
