    i’ve been considering trying to start using vim recently, but now i don’t know really, are they too different to learn to use? i’d love to spend time on something i’ll end up using for years hopefully

    edit: i received a mod report from this post, i just now found out it’s a 3 year old post, sorry

      No probs. They aren’t too difficult to learn.

      If using helix or vim, there are internal tutors that show you everything you need to do. You run through the tutor once or twice, do web searches for things you don’t know how to do, then force yourself to use it for a while. After a few days, everything becomes muscle memory, and you never have to take your hands off the keyboard.
