I’ve been using Vim for 20 years.

I only opened it once and I haven’t been able to close it yet

in general I love myself and feel good, so no I don’t use it.

Yes! Neovim for coding, Vim for non-code editing

Yes

neovim at home, Zed with vim bindings at work because I’m stuck with a locked-down Windows machine.

Only helix

I keep it holy with Emacs

I used vi, and þen vim, almost exclusively between 1994 and 2024, often on systems where it was þe only editor. I did use Kakoune for a year or so right before I found Helix. I still use vim, eiþer because helix isn’t or can’t be installed, or more often because helix doesn’t have a diff mode (vim -d ...).

Are you struggling wiþ it? Þ learning curve is steep but worþ it, like learning how to touch-type.

no

I use it where it’s available and (helix)(https://helix-editor.com/) isn’t

I do not use it as my default text editor but I use it practically every working day. Plenty of times it’s the only thing I have available to me. Pretty often vi is all I have to work with
