    I would say the same as most it really depends on what you are doing, I program in Lisp a lot so Emacs is a natural fit. Vi/Vim/Neovim are in my opinion Technically better they are smaller and simpler however Emacs is a much bigger and more versatile. I ended up choosing Emacs specifically because it was bigger and more versatile. I do plan on giving Vim a try again sometime to see if it fits my needs better, once learning Vim Keybinds/Motions I find it relatively easy to switch between them, except when it comes to the editor specific apps like Org Mode.
