I literally never use the computer without a mouse. Should I bother learning VIM? Or can I just stick with Sublime?
Does proficient use of VIM actually lead to increased productivity or is it just a meme? I understand the benefit if you're working remotely and don't have a full mouse + keyboard but it seems silly to use an editor which actively ignores the fact that I have a mouse sitting in front of me.
For those that use VIM as their daily drivers: how long did it take for you to prefer VIM to traditional editors?
VIM is a meme. Emacs is a meme. Linux in general is a meme.
No fucking clue why people waste time with all of that clunky shit. Just use windows and notepad++.

Vim integrates well under linux therefor it is a part of the toolchain. Vim is very useful if you learn how to use it, but of equal importance is that you configure it heavily, don't do the whole "sane defaults" shit, you will die.
You're a fucking dummy, don't talk to me.

Do whatever you want. You sound like an idiot, so you probably won't benefit from using vim and will declare it a "meme" regardless.
Of course you can stick with Sublime. What kind of question even is that? You can continue to keep using anything that serves your purposes. To get the most benefit, you should use whatever provides an interface powerful enough to sate your usage capabilities. If you can't mentally handle more than a couple of keybinds and need a visual indicator and one-to-one input device just to navigate, then don't try to use an editor built for people who are above that.

It is nice to know how to use at least one text editor you can use over ssh to edit some remote files without downloading/editing/reuploading or having to start a remote desktop application.
