No matter how much you tweak it, you will never even start to scratch an experience like Visual Studio. Vim is a fundamentally weaker platform.

- Tenhundfeld 9y agoMeh. I've used both and disagree. Visual Studio is a better IDE. Vim is a better text editor.
- yamaneko 9y agoHas anyone tried VsVim [1]? It is the best vim experience I've had in any other editor. And I've already tried Sublime's, VSCode's, and others. Most of the vim functions I use are there, but it's been a while since the last time I used VisualStudio, so I don't recall the ones with problem. You can even plug in relative line numbers [2].

- flukus 9y agoThe biggest issue is you're still tied to the real crappy windowing of VS, not the much better ones of vim or tmux. VsVim is getting really good though, it even reads your vimrc these days.
- michaelmrose 9y agoEither many many thousands of professionals are blind to the awesome power that is windows plus visual studio or maybe people value different things and having made an informed analysis decided to use other things.
