- temporarara 2y agoVim stands for "Vi IMproved" so it literally is meant to be an improvement, and IMO it really is although plain old Vi is still better than most editors.
- __MatrixMan__ 2y agoEvery time I try to use vscode I start losing time because within a few months I become involved in some kind of diplomacy between the maintainers of vscode and some adjacent component over a bug that neither wants to own. Stuff just works in vim. So uh yeah, definitely an improvement. And re: may god have mercy on us all... Yeah it's not looking good. I'd really like it if we could get our shit together, but ever since we put the marketing people in charge the engineering has been looking increasingly flimsy.
- adamnemecek 2y agoThat's because vim does very little.
- __MatrixMan__ 2y agoAgreed, it doesn't suck because it has only one job to do. One master. Me.
