Minus the "AI" part and I somewhat agree with the middle person, at least for HTML/CSS. I love how Bluefish has auto tag completion so I can focus on what goes inside instead of having to close open tags.

In Neovim after re-writing my config I actually opted out of even using a LSP. If you have a picker with grep + fuzzy finder honestly the experience is not that bad and keeps things lean. You will need to change your workflow a bit but very doable. So I can stand behind the "meme".

Don't worry, @aard@kyu.de already integrated OpenAI in Emacs.

I don't need full features. Just give me intellisense and I'm gold.

Just use a magnetized needle;... the way it was always inteneded to.

I'm on the far left.

you only need microsoft write.exe

give me a text editor with svc integration, project scoping, and syntax highlighting and I'll use it forever.

Lite XL my beloved

My text editor of choice for many years was gedit. Nowadays, I use emacs

I'm hoping to transition from left to right wihtout going through the middle stage.
