    Late 30s dev here: I’ve never cared to learn emacs or vim, tried when younger, but left it. Am I a fraud?

      I used to be a vim fan but now I only use it for modifying files over SSH. Other than that I code with an IDE, you can’t beat all the plugins and linters with a in-terminal editor. A colleague still codes in emacs and its code is dirty af.

        PEBKAC - don’t blame emacs (not sure why anyone would use it when vim exists, though)

        I mean, I use a plugin manager for Neovim myself, and you can pretty much configure it to however you like.

        Someone even make an inline markdown preview for the editor using sixels (in terminal image display).

        but still I prefer the markdown preview plugin as it previews the file using a browser is format rly similar to github’s styles
