Using vim is a fun experience, and I love constantly learning about my editor. But, there are two things that bother me:

  • it makes me feel that as a student, I’m focusing too much on learning how to write code over doing novel things with code

  • I’m constantly anxious that I am missing big things about vim that are making me inefficient and that I wouldn’t be able to keep up using vim at work when most people just use vscode, and install some company-supported plugin whereas I would have to tinker with my rc for 30 minutes to achieve the same effect.

I was wondering ify ou guys have any thoughts on my fears lol. it would be sad for me to spend so much effort learning vim only to not use it ever.
