    Do you use vim as your default text editor?

    Not just text editor, but also IDE via rocks.nvim.
    Ever since I wanted to edit some file that had like 2000 lines and I just wanted to quickly go to line 1164.
    Nano wasn’t cut out for that and I hadn’t heard of emacs.
    But I use a Typematrix dvorak keyboard, so I had to rearrange all the command.
    Now I’m stuck with it.

    If you do not, have you ever been in a situation you could do nothing but use vim?

    Yeah, whenever I type git commit -m "message goes here"
    Also, I wanted to program on a server, so I ssh’d into it and decided that vim was the way to go as an IDE.
