Started learning to program seriously early 2017. Love fixing problems so decided to switch careers from e-commerce and management to programming and web dev. Longterm goal is full stack developer.

Haha, I actually have been teaching myself vim as its useful for server work. I think i'll keep atom for my regular work but I appreciate vims simplicity, at least I appreciate it until I forget how to exit for 5 minutes lol.
I will add that I do live the fact that I can pushd to a location touch a file and then edit on the spot. Never leaving the command line is great for focus and I appreciate that.
Also there is the whole "emacs vs vi" flame war that was raging decades ago, only remembered by neckbeards like myself. I was an emacs user, tried vi for six months, and never went back to emacs. The other dev with whom we had bet to switch editors, immediately went back to vi after having used emacs for six months.
I know, there are emacs fans out there. After having used it for years, I can say that it is an impressive development environment, an operating system unto itself, and really an entire religion... the only thing it lacks is a decent text editor.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
I'm addicted to trying out text editors usually do go back lol.
I use Vim. Day-in-and-day-out. I've been using it for about 20 years.
You might think that I'm an advocate, and evangelizing about how awesome it is. (Well, it actually is awesome.)
My fingers know it tacitly. The editor gets out of my way. It's zen-like.
But no, that's not the case. My advice is: IT'S TOO LATE FOR ME! SAVE YOURSELF!
