Maybe not on the landing page, but there's a large button saying "Learn More about the Kakoune philosophy" that leads to this page [1] that mentions vim 5 times and vi 11 times, including: "It first started as a reimplementation of Vim" "A design goal of Kakoune is to beat vim at its own game, while providing a cleaner editing model" "Up to now, I have used vi as an example for modal text editor, mostly because I expect most programmers have at least heard of it. However, I don’t believe vi and clones are the best modal text editor out there." and so on. 1: https://kakoune.org/why-kakoune/why-kakoune.html https://kakoune.org/why-kakoune/why-kakoune.html
