Spent ages building my own work management system only to realise I was just taking the scenic route to eMacs.

I was thinking the same thing: why is everyone reinventing emacs?

gnu and emacs already have a long history of cli and text friendly solutions that LLM dev agents can easily use and are trained on.

Or for structured data, just use a database. Dev agents can work with SQL just fine.

The problem is that they aren't reinventing emacs.

The first person that makes emacs for the hoi polloi will suck up all the emacs people as well just based on interop frustrations.

I still can't believe that after seeing how slack just released irc for grandma's and pointy haired bosses that no one has done the same for a sensible defaults for normies emacs.

So glad emacs finally found me, I can't wait until I can look back 10 years from now
