I'm vim poweruser since around 2009. When I use VSCodium (not that much today) I obviously use Vim emulation.

When I use a different editor, there will be lots of jjkk or ,w (I nmap ,w to :w). Habits die hard.

Now I switched to neovim due to the amount of good features I like with it. I use exclusively mini.nvim modules that are awesome.

cool stuff, for a bunch i didnt realise they were really distinct versions!

Use Helix now as the first one that stuck in my fingers though. before that it was always try a lil while and forget it (back to nano...).

Helix i think is like 'user friendly vi' or maybe 'no config vi'. dont need any plugins or weird stuff. everything essential works out of the box (for me)
