Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast [Colorized]

Obligatory video "Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast in 2023 Colorized" this video . "Emacs is a part-time job". I agree.

I knew mentioning EMACS would get the HN crowd riled up, that's the point. :) For laughs: Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast in 2023: this video And to keep things fair and balanced, an Interview with a VIM Enthusiast: link "I actually wrote a vim versus IDE comparison.

No exactly on topic, but I enjoyed this parody, Interview with a VIM Enthusiast: link also, Interview with a Emacs Enthusiast: this video

And I think this mental image would have to give way for Emacs to become more popular. Now whether or not popularity for popularities sake is a good thing is another question.
