I've been using vim/Neovim since 1999, and the amount of muscle memory that I've built up is deeply ingrained. I'm thinking that it may be time to branch out a bit and try my hand at emacs. How would you recommend dipping my toes into the emacs tackle box?

Sure! The first thing you'll need to know is that :qa! is how you close without saving, haha. ...wait, you want to migrate "from" vim!!! [recoils in horror]

    Not necessarily migration, but just developing a familiarity with it. I'm assuming that after 27 years of vim, my brain is going to react like it's witnessed the Color Out of Space.
