I've been an Emacs user since 1990 and a maintainer since 2006. While I don't have the prettiest desktop, I frequently locate and identify issues in our tools first because the workflow is not being hidden from me. #nomagic

I was a CS major (before I dropped out and switched to music ed) in 1997. I remember using Turbo C++ back then, but never even heard of Emacs. I mostly used Dev-C++ on Windows for a few years after that. Went through a bunch of different languages/editors/complilers over the years but just now getting to Emacs. 🤷‍♂️
