@jyrgenn @mdhughes Emacs, consistently over a 30 year period, has given me RSI *within a week* every time I've tried using it as my main editor. It was designed for a keyboard layout that no longer exists (outside weird homebrew builds).

@cstross @jyrgenn @mdhughes I do have to remark that the ergonomics of most keyboards until fairly recently were sorely lacking.

I can't imagine doing much of anything with them without getting RSI or other postural issues over time. (Yes, even the space cadet & others.)

(Nostalgic as that beige IBM keyboard may be, it was still terrible for ergonomics.)
