We keep hearing about network effects in social media networks, but as an Engg who works with multiple systems (personal, work, EC2, EMR, etc etc.) I do feel that when it comes to text editing tools as well, there is a network effect that comes into play. The only reason for me to switch to a different editor is if a majority of the systems I use have it preinstalled. Which means barebones vi/vim is still my best bet. My personal .vimrc is modified for my daily workflow, but doesn't stray too far away from barebones vim so that I always feel "at home" no matter which system I am on. I've tried moving away to different editors, but find myself comign back to vim fairly quickly just because it is available everywhere!
