Bizarre that you’ve hated it for 30 years yet didn’t know one of the earliest things users learn about it (that actually is fine to use). Perhaps you should examine why you hate something you’re almost completely ignorant of.
Though most jokes and criticisms about Emacs betray complete ignorance of it, so you’re hardly unusual.
You must truly loathe vscode etc then if you hate emacs for overhead. I can’t really see why you should hate something just because it uses a slightly less small amount of resources. I don’t even know how you’d notice on any machine from the last 20 years.
Seems pretty reasonable that if you want to tell the world you hate something, you might want the world to understand why you hate it, or else perhaps we might assume it’s not a reasoned position. That’s certainly the conclusion I’m coming to.
In emacs,
C-_
is undo. If you perform a non-undo operation, then undo it, then do a non-undo operation, then two undos will undo the undo.Unless you’re using one of emacs’s alternate undo systems, like
undo-fu
,undo-tree
, orvundo
, which may have their own ways of doing things.I use
undo-tree
, and with the default bindings there, there’s an undo onC-_
and a redo onM-_
; undo doesn’t undo undos there.Omg. I’ve hated emacs for 30+ years and you just made it worse.

I don’t need all the overhead. Vi has always worked for me. It’s ubiquitous. I’m fast with it. It suits my needs fully.

This is my preference. Is that not OK?

wait, isn’t undo
C-/
?That too.
Sounds perfectly usable hahaha
K, I’m just going to watch inception instead of going down the undo wormhole.
Undo-tree is awesome but it’s sadly not implemented in most editors.
