I came to vim as an Alice. Everyone swore by vim, so I thought I should learn it, despite it being kinda fiddly for a text editor. It took me another couple of years to switch over completely, a couple more before I started to actually enjoy using it, and a couple more before I started to care about being efficient with my keystrokes.

Once you drink the cool-aid, there's nothing quite like it. Sometimes I think that scooting around a text file in vim is my favorite thing about coding.
