     @KaitlynEthylia@akko.wtf Ruining emacs by doing what exactly? Keeping it alive?

     @KaitlynEthylia@akko.wtf Emacs does a billion things so it's not surprising at all that many users only use it for their specific needs, which for many people happens to be Org-mode.
     
     I don't understand what these boomers are complaining about. This is literally according the spirit of free software (freedom 0)

     @SuperDicq A lot of fancy words to make a very shallow point

     But the parents of millennials were more likely to have taken their kids to see “The Lion King” than “Reality Bites.” So millennials have been inured at an early age of “a la carte” preferences and inclusion. Two-timing is de rigueur particularly amongst org-mode devotees, a good number of whom only use emacs for task management and demur to a modern IDE for coding.
