More fun with VIM, it only takes six key strokes to save and quit.

      Both Vim and Git really clicked with me when I had to revise and rewrite a paper. Sure, my graphic editor could do most things, but it really felt comfortable and quick on vim. I now use it for all my text editing, but that was my click moment.

      By TUI do you mean VI/M? Or something like helix or slap??

      VI is usually on 99% of the time on any Linux system. That’s why I use VIM, to ensure I know what to do for editing and how to do it at a basic level. I mean personally I have a bunch of config settings and plugins, but I an do basic tasks with VI and feel comfortable. I believe that is important for a Linux admin.

        Like I know how to use it but it never really clicked for me, I’ve tried helix, neovim, vim and nano but it doesn’t click for me.

          When it does click with you, them every other editor feels a little broken. It’s a double edged sword.
