I use Sublime or VS Code but for no purpose that I could not put Vim to if I wanted. Most of my coding work is reading and thinking. When navigating, I mostly use regexes (relying heavily on standard code format). After using VS for twenty years, I decided to try this more textual approach two years ago, and I believe I have become a better developer for it. An IDE makes it so easy to drop into the debugger. I try to gain understanding of the code and drop into the debugger only if necessary. With this barebones approach, I more deeply understand the system and more often fix bugs at the root rather than the symptom.
