Go through emacs from scratch:

Try using that config 25% of your work/productive time for 1 month.

Then if you are annoyed by how much time it takes try using doomemacs for the same 25% time.

At the end of this you'll know if/which emacs approach is for you.



Thanks for the recommendation


And look at all the many other excellent videos that David Wilson (aka SystemCrafters) have made regarding Emacs!


No problem.

25% isn't a hard number btw, tailor for the process to be frictionless and useful for you.
