Learning Vim was really a big boost in productivity (after surviving the dreaded learning curve).
I personally use mainly the Vim extension of VSCode. A match made in heaven ❤️
I can do almost anything that I can do with regular Vim, but with more IDE-like features and better highlighting.
Sometimes it can feel a bit more sluggish though.

I agree. Once you get into the habit of thinking in Vim, it's hard to let go!
It's pretty cool when you realize that there is practically at least a Vim extension in every major IDE/editors (VSCode, IntelliJ, Emacs).
