Comment on My Text Editor Journey: Vim, Spacemacs, Atom and Sublime Textparent

Could you tell me; don't you miss a mouse?

What, I have to move my hand off the keyboard, over the numpad, land on the mouse, register where the pointer is, move the pointer to whereever, do the action... and reposition my hand back on the keyboard?

Seriously though, you do start to edit faster in vim once you 'get it', and I'm not all that great with it myself. I have seen a vim god in action and I've never seen anything so fast at editing. This all being said, vim is much more suitable for system administration than developing, IMO.
