Is adopting Doom or Spacemacs-style folder structures for my Emacs config practical to use compared to traditional options like lisp/ and modules/? (alien.top)

Both split responsibilities based between on what is the "real config" or "helpers" with macros/functions, but the thing is doom-like-style puts it all in one folder(example: /ui/modeline/config /ui/modeline/utils) while other split in two (lisp/lisp-modeline.el, modules/my-mod-modeline.el), and would like to know your opinion about this and what worked for you.

Some context: By now all my settings are all in one init file, and it already passed the 2k lines mark and once something break, everything breaks, so this is needed to avoid future headaches

I came from using DOOM emacs and I left it behind for this very reason. One incorrect line in your config and nothing loads.

I have since started using the "crafted-emacs" methodology developed by member of the System Crafters community.

I have developed my own "nodules that I load from my init.el file.

So far it's working great. All I did was take the sections from my old configuration file and break them out in to individual .el files to load.

Not a problem. I think I missed your edit. Cheers :)

Cut my lisp init pieces! 
This is my last resort!
Suffocation. No layers.
Don't give a fuck if my code signals errors!

What type of errors specifically are you running into that break your whole config?
