i cant understand all the vim hyping. its probably very neat and can do whatever, but what good is that if it takes awful amount of bother to learn everything by heart since interface has been designed to be as unfriendly as possible. it doesnt have to be fit for office worker, but at least some ease if use is needed.

Vim is actually highly ergonomic; you can do everything with a minimum of keystrokes without moving a hand away to a mouse or touchpad or oven the arrow keys. If that’s worth the time investment to learn it, is a highly subjective question. But I’d say it’s a lot easier than many people think.

Though, if you prefer, you can also move your hand to the mouse. With the scroll wheel and good hand-eye coordination, you can get pretty close to the speed of a true vim exper–haha jk, they finished converting the entire source file from python to rust using a specially crafted regex by the time your hand reached the mouse and implemented a matrix view by the time you scrolled to the line you wanted. And when you say that falling green symbols aren’t that impressive, they look at you in confusion for a moment before realizing what you meant and handing you a VR plug to show you what “matrix view” really means.
