    Literally the only thing I code in at work. Have done so for decades.

    Can’t stop, won’t stop.

        Imagine thinking modern IDE are more efficient than vi 😯

        Curser is more intuitive, I agree, but you will never win a code race against similar skilled coder on vi…

      how do you tolerate the 0 and $ to jump to the ends? it’s so painfully inconvenient and made me switch to helix where it’s g->h and g->l. do you not use the default keymap?

            Most nvim users I know have their setup very much customized. That takes time, effort and is a pita. But afterwards you have a tool that just works like you want it to work, and is super fast (at least compared to VSCode).

        Muscle memory mostly. I miss vim keybinding when I have to type in anything else, including Lemmy.

        Shift-A and Shift-I to append at the end or insert at the start.

        Once you know the system, it’s much easier to do everything without having to take your hands off the keyboard to use a mouse.
