I was with you before but now I think I might be glad that people like you get ignored by emacs developers. Do you also think that Craigslist looks amateurish, unpolished, and unappealing in any modern sense?

I'm all for improving usability (I agree with all the other points you made in this post) but I don't want my software to look "modern", simply because in general, UI design has gotten worse over the last 20 years.
