I'm sorry if my tone was too harsh, I now realise this is still
triggering old pain.
Why is it still OK to for people to keep spreading negative anecdotes
about Emacs, and problematic to refute them or counter them with
positive anecdotes?
It's been me believing exactly such lies that scared me away from
starting with Emacs for years, lost years in a way; something I deeply
regret: this has to stop.
Greetings,
Janneke
