Vim is a powerful text editor that improves coding speed & efficiency through its shortcut-based Vim language. While learning Vim can be challenging, it is a valuable skill that can enhance your career as a computer professional.
I also just love how the keybindings make more sense. Instead of vim’s verb-motion/object paradigm, you have a selection-verb paradigm in Helix, where you can see what you are about to change before doing it. No more re-doing your motion or macro or some shit just because you made a typo. It’s great. And I’m a (n)vim user of at least a decade before switching. I started with Kakoune before Helix though. That was a great transition.

Damn, I might have to try it out. Don’t really feel like redoing my neovim config, though.
