Linux, emacs.
Not to start the infamous war but why Emacs and not vim/neovim?
I find vim way of editing text uncomfortable and how it lacks flexibility in general when compared to emacs (One can make vim from emacs not viceversa). Also I like that emacs is a gui application.
Ah makes sense, I've always preferred vim but never got good with the motions
Oh you’re opening a big can of worms here
Specifically, the Team17 kind that shoot at each other.
