Learning vim motions in VSCode with the vim plugin was the best decision I made this year. Made programming even more fun and after a year of learning I actually feel that I finally reached a point where I’m a lot more productive. I set up neovim too, but I’m missing some things to fully switch from VSCode and I have to research my options (git integration and debugging are my pet peeves), which I haven’t had time for lately.
Say that to the face of a hardcore Vim or Emacs user and enjoy the essay.
I like vim, but I’m not a power user, so trying to code with it sounds…painful. I’ve never cracked emacs, although it has piqued my curiosity.
