Maybe one day I'll learn how to use Vim (lemmy.world)

I tried a couple of times and it's still magic to see anyone able to use it properly

I'll just stick to VScode for now I guess

I've tried for years to master vim, but still fall back to old habits. I have gotten to the point where single file editing is faster in vim than in IntelliJ, but still haven't figured out the mysteries of vim buffers and multi-file editing.

Buffers are great, but I mostly go for tabs. :tabnew :tabnext :tabmove and so on.

I use tabs and windows in vim. Mix this with telescope.nvim and a few keybinds and multi-file editing can get really fast.

Ctrl-p also works with buffers, making it almost trivial.
