After years of vi users trying to turn every perfectly working program into a worse version of vi, it's heartening to see we're taking the fight for sanity and justice back to their territory.

- agubelu 3y agoPersonally, I find it a bit tiring that the usual response coming from the vim userbase towards someone not liking vim is either a) you obviously didn't learn it well enough, or b) you must be a bad programmer. Sure, vim is a great tool, but it's just a tool. You're perfectly allowed to not like it and/or prefer to use other tools.
