I’d like actual examples instead of “I work faster”, something like “I can move straight to the middle of the file with 7mv” or “I can keep 4 different text snippets in memory and paste each with a number+pt, like 2pt”, things that you actually use somewhat frequently instead of what you can do, but probably only did once.
Coding in neovim, I don’t know that I am that much quicker or more efficient. Maybe with certain actions I am, but its probably n9t measurable.
What I do get though, is a sort of flow state. It’s like playing a video game where I try to edit text with the fewest keystrokes possible. It’s genuinely fun and I can code longer since its fun.
