In such situations, if one cannot install spacemacs, at least they can use vim.
There's also the fact that some evil users use it because they want to edit text the vim way and not the emacs way. Such people wouldn't want to use vanilla emacs anyway.
- rashkov 8y agoI think that onyva might be referring to those situations where various plugins and emacs major modes require you to operate with emacs bindings, and are otherwise incompatible with vim bindings. It’s a bit rare but I’ve had to switch to emacs when trying to do some things in erc (irc client), eww (web browser), and eshell (terminal).
