From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So, because you don't understand something, it's outdated?
Ok, I can see you have no idea what you're talking about.
I understand it very well. And that's exactly why I'm writing this.
Then say, grandmaster delusion, what purpose does vim serve, where it is actually the best tool? Writing code? Hardly, it's way too limited and requires a ton of upfront investment and headspace. Writing config files? Hardly, because if you write these by hand, you're living in the 90s, that's what Ansible, Terraform etc are for.
You just don't want to admit, that vim is nothing more than a habit. Muscle memory.
