I still use emacs. I've been using emacs as my IDE for the longest time, until about two years ago. Why did I stop? Well, I still use it, but just the core functionality. I stopped using it as my primary IDE b/c I was tired of companies having an old version of emacs and having to get around their firewall to get a new one, or making work around with the version that they had. Not to mention, all the setup I needed to do even if I got all the packages that I wanted. The whole process can take as long as the contracted work I signed on to do.
it was visual studio, a paid software that microsoft invest a lot of money an it still grows slow and resource hungry without substantial feature change that makes me migrate to something more simple like vim. so, no VS is not the "steam hammer" of software.

Yes, because Emacs is the best Vim client! But also a pretty decent operating system, has longer boot times than GNU/Linux though.

emacs gang rise up
At work, I nowadays basically exclusively work with Windows servers. First thing I install in any new virtual machine is git bash and emacs :)
Why would you use regular expressions to convert TeX to word when there's a ready-made set of scripts (pandoc) already widely used for this?
Yeah, or just use Org-mode and export as ODF!
If we're still typing on keyboards and using terminals etc in 50 years then we will have emacs and vim most likely
John Henry DOES win against the steam-hammer the story. He just dies of cardiac arrest at the end from overworking himself in order to beat it.
*Neal Stephenson on Emacs (on some guy's podcast).
