My Emacs wouldn’t be the same without Prots modus themes[1], which I found to be a great foundation to build my own theme on top of. I am grateful for all the work he did for the Emacs community.

I also enjoy watching his videos where he talks about various philosophical topics from a very clear, pragmatic and down-to-earth perspective. My impression is that he is a really kind and humble person and that he lives by his philosophical insights, without bragging about his lifestyle or judging about how other people live their lifes.

Modus themes are so rad - they look bleak at first, but after a while they grow on you. Then you try some other theme and notice how terrible it is to look at due to lack of contrast. I am convinced now that most theme makers have not the slightest idea what they are doing. Modus and PragmataPro font are two things which spoiled themes and fonts for me.

But, Prot also has other incredible packages - I am a user of denote, his notetaking package. Then there are ef-themes, for those who like themes with more color. There are gems there, but really, one should try modus for a while first.

They handle other packages so nicely too, as well as switching between light and dark and using variable pitch for UI parts.
