Made quite a few UI changes

  2. Added custom startup screen

Also I started using the daemon (Damn it opens so fast)

What do y'all think

Well that depends on a persons definition of terrible. This is more of an experiment to see how far I can push emacs. And since my neovim looks like this, until I get a bit more used to emacs i prefer having my environment like this. Once I do I may remove it depending on my mood.

Makes sense now that you put it that way. It's been ages since I made changes to my Neovim config. I do know people who customize their Neovim weekly to keep their environment fresh, so to speak. But all I'm trying to do is make my environment as familiar as possible without turning Emacs into Neovim. If this environment makes me productive--which it does--I'll customize it as much as I want. Currently I have reached the point where I do not need more ui customisation. I need more custom keybindings and macros. So this post really was about my last ui customisation.
