Hmmm. 1986 I think it was.
boss: "You need to learn vi"
Me: "Why, this Sun has a text editor on it"
Boss: "We own more than Sun workstations, go do this job on the Pyramid"
Me: "rsh...ok I'm in. Ok. Uh, how does vi work?"
Not sure it's a real necessity these days when Nano exists but vi or its modern equivalent is on OSX, all(?) Linux distributions and generally shows up in WSL on Windows.
The Vim mode in VSCode is...OK I guess but you do need to be a bit careful with cut and paste, as the paste menu item doesn't necessarily give a hoot about the Vim mode you're in and stuffs things wherever you right clicked rather than where the need the text to go.
