Why no `use-package`?

Hi,

I'm just curious with why you don't use use-package. I wonder if you get perf gains from going sans use-package or if you just don't find a good reason or time to do the switch.

Cheers

Hi @dareenzo

Thank you for your question. The reason is pretty simple: First of all, when I started out with this config, there was no use-package. And now, I don't see a reason to switch. In my understanding, the main rationale use use-package is to group together related changes for packages which is a good thing to do. Having said that, using Org mode you get similar semantics with additional options for documentation.

Best regards and good health
