I think I get what you are intending to imply by the word "intuitively"; it's that it eventually becomes as reflexive and fluid as touch-typing itself.

Exactly like that!

It's also another source of the many "I can't exit Vim" jokes, because it is now genuinely disorienting for me to try to edit text without Vim key bindings.

Gosh you make it sound almost like you play Vim like an instrument more than use it...!

That's a great analogy. It does very much feel that way.

Honestly that sounds cool ^_^

It is pretty cool.

Wether it's really worth the learning curve is probably unique to each person that tries it. But for folks who need to edit a lot of text a lot of the time, it's pretty great.

  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
