You may just want something a bit snappier, say if you are coming from massive bloatware IDE land?

- rglullis 7y agoOP says he is experienced with vi, so it is not his case and I don't want to be playing a game of "unlikely hypotheticals" But, even if that were the case, the recommendation would be to either (a) find a lighter alternative to the used IDE or (b) switch to an IDE that is plugin-based to remove all of the "bloatware". At no point I would be telling people that the first alternative for them to "be fast" is to join the church of Emacs. Fuck, I worked with junior developers who were more comfortable after I showed them they could work with gedit + terminal instead of cargo-culting whatever tool some nerdy senior used. All I am asking is to not be like those photographers that spend more time on forums discussing about equipment than actually taking pictures, or audiophiles that focus so much on testing their equipment that they forget to enjoy the music. Unless you are a camera maker/speaker designer/software tool developer, focusing on the tools instead of the product is quite a stupid way to live.
