First I would like to thank you Emacs team for creating such a wonderful application Emacs. Then maintaining it.
Plz consider speeding up the launch time of Emacs make it on par with Neovim atleast may with some cut down features or using a selective reduced modules in terminal. My primary use on Emacs is with note taking in Org mode, launch time for with highly modded Emacs is some 25 seconds, more or less same time even in terminal 'emacs -nw' command, I don't want to use the daemon thingy and for neovim with neorg it's just 1.5 seconds am on some legacy 2002 old hardware. So sadly I am taking use of neovim with neorg. As trend and acceptability of rust increasing we will see more feature rich and quicker note taking apps performance.
I understand Emacs is itself is an standalone operating system but not so privileged people also use this platform and to abandon so many is cutting own following, one trend which am seeing is on neovim they are wanna be Emacs, almost every 3rd plugin is being copied somewhere even the Emacsconf is replicated some way.
I wish to see emacs competitive and more adaptive it has all the capabilities to lead the charts just some push is good direction is needed work with startup time is one of them.
Obliged And concerned Emacs user
Warm Regards
