I've given up on Vim a long time ago. However, every IDE or editor or notebook tool I use that has Vim keystrokes I enable that and use that. You have to let the Vim purist in you die, it's not a fight that can be won. Settle for like 80% of what you used to be able to do in Vim and call it a day.

I don't understand. Why do you need to do this? What am I settling for? I use vim daily and want for nothing.

Vim becomes a state of mind, a model for editing that is really empowering. I can translate any thought to code by doing a little dance on my keyboard. My mind is freed by this expression.
