#2Does anyone use this daily? this gets posted a few times a year to HN but tbh it looks like someone just re-invented vi. Which seems kindof like creating a new religion. It can be done, but even the best televangelist isn't going to hold a candle to the spread of the catholic church.

#3I tried kakoune on the basis of a blog post I found here a while back, that described its better-thought out Vim-like command language. I was hooked almost immediately. Now I use it daily. So if you like Vi/Vim's text editing model but wish its language was more orthogonal and powerful, give Kakoune a shot.

Several of my coworkers use it instead of Vim. It seems pretty nice, and I've been tempted to try jumping ship now too.
