You should lookup Argumentum ad populum. There are still many reasons to use a free and open source keyboard centric editor that can run as a TUI, has stayed around for 30 years while other Microsoft owned editors died on the vine barely 5 years into their lifespan.

If my professional opinion, learning vim or emacs will give you a tool that will last you several lifetimes and can grow with you as you customize it to your specific needs.

So true! When I started as a professional programmer they were using Eclipse, then Textmate was the big thing, then it was all about SublimeText and now it seems everybody has moved to VSCode. And here I am still using Vim happily after 20 years...
