#32“Unwashed masses” == vim converts.
I wouldn't mind switching away from Vim, but I would never, EVER switch to Emacs. this video only scratches the surface of how bloated Emacs is.
what dont you like about vim that would make you switch away from it? There's no universe where I can imagine doing that

honestly Vim is pretty slow, and it utterly sucks with long lines. you can do "g" motion, but I cant seem to get my muscle memory to remember that. to me "down" should always use whats visible on the screen, not just dumbly move to the next line.

#36I opened vim and tried to type "blimpy" and nothing happened. I also can't quit.
Due to some disagreements in the vim community about typing blimpy not being a priority, I believe you have to download blimpyvim to get this working.
