Personally, my biggest issue is getting vim to work the same way on multiple platforms. I have a mac at work and alternate between windows and linux at home. Each of those has been slightly different than the others. To some extent, yes, once you have the config set you can just leave it alone and be fine. But for me, switching to a full IDE has made life easier.

I agree. With the caveat that I'm not a vim power user, the IdeaVim plugin has worked well for me. It doesn't have everything, but I haven't encountered any annoying bugs while using it. Plus, IntelliJ / WebStorm do a lot of really powerful and convenient things. It has been a nice compromise.
