Minimal Emacs? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by moonsnotreal@lemmy.blahaj.zone to c/emacs@lemmy.ml
 

I have been using vim for forever and I have dabbled in using emacs throughout the years. Emacs with the evil mode bindings is very comfortable, and I prefer org-mode over markdown (at least for the type of notes I do).

The main thing that stops me from using emacs though is how bloated it is. I don't want the games, web browser, email client, etc. Is there a way to remove those features from a standard install or from source?

Edit: I guess I'll stick with vim for now. It looks like Neovim might be more what I'm looking for instead of Emacs
