I use Emacs, but only because I don’t want to use VSCode (spyware) or VSCodium (even that does not get all the telemetry out by default, and anyway, it’s like using Chromium…). But Emacs is NOT good for my OCD… Too much time configuring things I don’t really care about. And I don’t code as much as actual (professionals) programmers (I’m a mathematician), so I basically use my mouse a lot…

Anyway has anyone tried Lapce? Is it any good?

    I tried it out a few months ago. If I recall correctly, for a beta version it was excellent. It was still missing a few things which were deal breakers (I think working on a remote system wasn’t an option?), so I’m not currently using it. I imagine it’s only got better, and I should probably go have another look at it.
