I never find spacemacs comfortable enough, plus it's kinda heavy. I used Doom for a while, but ended up building my own .emacs.d with lispy-mode, use-package, ryo-modal, avyand other stuff. Stolen code from doom source code, too

ryo-modalin particular is super useful, I only have to maintain (and memorize) keybindings for things I really use

I customize my keyboard layout a bit at operating system level starting from programmer's dvoraklayout, while most default keybinds out there are made for qwerty, so I often got conflicts here and there until I roll my own key binding system 😆
