> Those stats are also probably skewed in favor of people actually bothering to fill their survey. Those are more likely to be active/proactive, which in my experience is correlated with tinkering with tools (ergo, using Vim or Emacs).

and yet:

> Most developers don’t use command line editors. Here’s recent data from this year: https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2018#development-e.... As you see, 4 most popular editors are VS Code, Visual Studio, Notepad++ and Sublime Text, all of them are GUI applications. Only 26% developers use Vim, 4% Emacs.

My point that those stats are not necessarily representative of the general population in that CLI editors are used by even less people than listed there. In my personal experience maybe 1% of the developers I know use them as their primary editors. They maybe edit some stuff with them on remote Unix systems, if you can call i<change some stuff>:wq real editing :)
