Hello there .
I am using as my OS devuan gnu+linux .
The point is I like philosophy of Unix using like tmux + nvim + mutt .
and I love the vi keybings so much …

Sometimes I am thinking to switch to gnu emacs … but I feel that I will find some difficulties
and I am afraid .

Is there a easy way to use emacs ?
can someone help or give me some YT videos to watch to have a good idea about emacs ?

    It may take a few days to get used to, but just start by learning the basic movement commands (char up/down, char left/right, scroll page up/down, i-search backwards/forwards) and navigation commands (find file, switch buffer, split window) down and you have a decent baseline start with, then just gradually learn more commands afterwards. It’s really not that difficult… I recommend the basic internal tutorial, just press “Control+h” and then “t”. Stop thinking and just start now!
