I know vim. I'm using vscodium with a vim plugin. I was coding in pure vim for half a year because my Laptop with 4 gigs of RAM couldn't handle vscode. I just don't want to configure vim so it does all the stuff VScodium does for me
That's fine, use what works best. I think there's value in getting at least the basics working, such as syntax highlighting and linting in case you want or need to use it again.
The question was why one should learn to use something like ViM or emacs, not why anything else is a poor option. Master your tools, regardless of what they are.
