> If Helix were completely different in this regard, like Emacs is, I could handle--and I know because I use both vim and Emacs regularly pretty fluently. But Helix is way too close to the vim keybindings to discern it from a memory muscle perspective.
You might want to reconsider trying a bit to see if you think it's worth it. I ended up learning vim deeply, emacs deeply, and meow (most similar to Helix being almost somewhat vim-like but different) somewhat deeply. I thought before each one that I couln't possibly learn the other, especially the similar one.
