Native compilation is now default, so elisp is much faster than it was out of the box.

Tree-sitter support is quite smooth now, with automatic grammar installation.

Apparently very good Android support.

Canvas support is in master, people are building all kinds of crazy stuff[0] with this

Lots of nice built-in packages like modus themes, eglot, which-key. Editable grep/xref/occur results is also built-in now. New context menu things.

Load the "newcomer-presets" theme to enable stuff that newcomers tend to want enabled (tab bar, fancy completion, lots of little things).
