Do you think you would be happier if you used emacs?

No, probably more frustrated. We got strongly encouraged to use either Emacs or Vim during my last year of classes, and I tried Emacs first, then gave up and switched to Vim after learning it through vimtutor on tilde.town. Now I'm used to Vim and I don't have any reasons to want to switch. Even if Emacs happened to be objectively better, I would still use Vim because it gets the job done well and switching would take too much effort.
