I have used kakoune almost exclusively for two years. Prior to that I used vim for 16 years, emacs for 10 years before that. For me kakoune started as vim visual mode done right, but I have come to love the editor because it has a small orthogonal command interface that provides all the power I had with vim, but with lower cognitive burden. Kakoune is a fantastic tool of rare quality. I find it a joy to use.
