I suppose those of us who have used vi(m) and terminals and command-line tools for years or decades should welcome DHH. Better late than never! I had the good fortune to attend DHH introducing Rails at OSCON years ago. After he finished his presentation the first questions asked about which editor (TextMate) and font he used. Similarly, Steve Jobs’ choice of jeans and black turtleneck, and Zuckerberg’s hoodies, got imitated and I think mistaken for the qualities that led to success. I expect DHH will cause a similar rush to Neovim and terminal apps, for the same bad reason: imitating superficial features of a successful person. Funny to read about vi in the form of Neovim replacing VSCode. vi actually replaced editors much more clunky and tedious.
