We all have our text-editor preferences... But I'm gonna go ahead and say it... Emacs isn't a text editor, it's an entire overlay OS (think Windows 3.1).

Some guy uses emacs as his window manager: http://www.howardism.org/Technical/Emacs...nager.html

Actually, multiple people: https://monkey.org/~marius/emacs-as-a-ti...nager.html

It has a built-in module called 'landmark'... Which is "a neural network robot that learns landmarks"
There's a bunch of built in games: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CategoryGames

Emacs has it's own Lisp dialect... I have no idea why.

It appareantly has not 1, not 2... but 3 web browsers...

It also has a built in psychotherapist named ELIZA (This thing is older than you). Just run M-x doctor.

There's a stackexchange client for emacs (https://stackapps.com/questions/3950/sx-...-for-emacs)

There is a lot of ways to send email from within it: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CategoryMail

In my opinion, nano does it right: "Do one thing, but do it well."

Emacs tries to do too much, I can see someone using it as an OS over a thin layer of Linux or BSD, but... For a text editor, this is too much.
