Hated Vim because when I was a cs major we were forced to use it to learn c++ (self.vim)

Randomly got into selfhosting/webhosting and everytime I need to edit anything when using the terminal, I end up installing vim and using it to edit stuff, it feels so much more comfortable than any other way of editing. I like vim now, it's the first thing I install when I need to config something. I like that its a modal editor and I have to use insert so I dont accidentally change stuff, if I want to save I :wq, if I don't I just :q, don't have a million options show up, it just works.

I like vim. Not everyone's cup of tea, but it lets me program.
