Why would you switch from Emacs? That's a genuine question, as an Emacs user?

Support for weird stuff like integration with smart home (home assistant), better syntax highlighting / autocomplete for specific cases (like the home assistant mentioned above), better support for mixed fonts, database integration, more efficient use of screen real estate for side panels and less effort to add new languages in general (cdk, terraform, k8s with crd, go, etc), one click github copilot...

My current role needs me to deal with whatever the customer is using, so a whole lot of variability, custom resources and libraries, languages that I'm not super familiar with... It's just easier.

If it helps, I'm still running Arch, BTW. (but probably will go with just debian when my computer dies, whenever that will be).
