vim bindings in Emacs. :-)

I end up with vim bindings in VSCode at the present. It doesn't do everything but it does most things I want. There is neovim integration, but last time I tried it there were a bunch of glitchy things that didn't work right (I remember selection being buggy but I can't remember the specifics). Maybe I'll have to give it another whirl.

I went for evil-mode for a while, then I decided to just go full Emacs. I still use vim sometimes, but I've come to enjoy the Emacs bindings.

Now I just need to install keymapper and convert all my M-w and C-y inputs to Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V.

vim bindings in Emacs are so great that when something isn't implemented properly (eg. editing macros, global marks) it hurts so much more.

Why use and editor when you can use an operating system? Really love all the editing options. It's a good time to be a developer.
