Anyone on prelude+ergoemacs ?

Warning (bytecomp): reference to free variable 'ergoemacs-modify-transient-maps' ^ ergoemacs from melpa, I get that with prelude (is ok without prelude)

Adding (defvar ergoemacs-modify-transient-maps 1) does away with the warnings. Likely a hack, but I don't know better.

You can ls ~/.emacs.d/elpa to verify the exact versions that you have downloaded So you can e.g. delete that dir's contents, start prelude, and write down the exact contents. Then repeat without prelude, and diff

There has been some discussion about stability issues with Emacs in MacOSX, especially on the latest Mac hardware. There have been some rendering issues, hangs and crashes. I have reports that building Emacs from source using the native compile branch, has produced stable builds. I wonder what Emacs distributions the community is finding stable for Emacs 27 (or 28)

I haven't experienced any issues running Emacs on Ubuntu Linux, event night builds of 28 have seemed fairly stable.

I'm using native-comp Emacs 28 with doom-emacs on NixOS for a while without issues

Good to know. Did you compile Emacs yourself, if so any particular build process used?

I use NixOS, so the canonical way to install anything is via the nix way, for Emacs, I use this nix overlay: https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay

https://nixos.org/ is a pure functional declarative package manager (that also works for Mac), so everytime I build the same Emacs version, it will always be the same 🙂
