After 15 years, it's time to switch... bye, VIM

I did the same thing recently, after about 25 years of vim! There's still certain things I miss about vim, but they're increasingly far and few between, and I've not looked back.
What prompted the switch for you?
The org mode. Control everything from the keyboard. Have one programmable interface to access everything... But honestly after a week and some... it is NOT a match. Can't get used to it. I am still more productive with the old setup.
That's fair. Those are all of the reasons I switched from neovim to emacs too. It took a bit to get used too, but I much really prefer it now.
OrgMode and orgRoam especially fill some note taking spaces I need
You're never gonna make 15 years worth of efficiency in a week! I'd encourage you to keep trying. It was worth it for me, tho I had ideological reasons for the switch (multilingual and accessibility requirements)
One of us one of us!
Well, I bight be ditching Emacs after all. I have came back to tmux+VIM on my personal setup. Still keeping Emacs with my work setup but its not working 😟
I understand Emacs is not only the editor. Its something more than it. And this is maybe the problem I am having with it at the end.. dunno 😕
