He does have a point. Using vi derivatives does seem a tad spartan today, and I've personally never been a fan of vi, nor of emacs, but much of the community has this pseudo-elitist dichotomy set up around those two editor families.
I'm not really a fan of what passes as IDEs, either, but I generally am not attached to any particular editor and hop around them.
(The right answer to vi vs. emacs is, of course, Acme.)
- mkozlows 11y agoThere's nothing spartan about it. Vim has tons of plugins. Using it as a Javascript editor, I've got syntax highlighting, git integration, linting, code completion, and more.
- wyclif 11y agoWhat is the JS plugin scene for vim like right now?
- kiyoto 11y agoI actually began using Acme a couple of months ago: it's kind of interesting how much I have accustomed to mouse-driven interaction and lack of syntax highlighting. Humans indeed are creatures of habit.
