I switched to vim as a main IDE (yes IDE) just so that common people can think I'm a fcking wizard seeing my dusty trackpad... And also to see their face when they try to show me their programming talents on my laptop 😏

    @404response the first month was the hardest for me! I've been using it for a year now and I love it !

    Im using vs code without mouse as well.

    But im trying to use vim more and more. I replaced the default notepad of windows for VIM.

    Vs code has great vim macros, you should try

    Wait until you start searching for "vim mode" on other editors... Then you know there's no comming back xD

    The only one I found relevant was the vs code's one. Absolutely hate the others ! And even with vim mode vs code, people frustration when they try my laptop is real

    Try adding tmux to the equation, you will be amazed.

    @pmike Already done! After one year of experimentation, I found the perfect balance to sustain my lazyness.

    @BenAfonso ain't lazyness... It's performance eheheh xD

    "Making more by doing less" just depends on which side! I tend to prefer the "doing less" for the same amount of results ahah

    Haha now switch to Dvorak and some tiling window manager

    Only after transitioning to Dvorak and mapping CTRL to caps lock @BenAfonso

    @azous good idea about the caps lock, thanks.
  • 2
    Yeah, being a strong emacs user my pinky thanks for that mapping 😁@Codex404

    @azous already done for caps lock but I will give Dvorak a try, this viking sound seems cool !

    Hahaha yeah!

    I started using it one year ago i guess, at the beginning you just wanna fucking punch the keyboard and scream like a little kid.

    What I did was change everything to Dvorak, even my phone, made some 1 hours typing tutorials on it everyday for a month or more and now its smooth.

    I still can type on qwerty but its soo strange and I totally lost the grip with it but I wasn't a touch typer on qwerty now I am with Dvorak.

    I prefer programmer Dvorak over traditional Dvorak

    Vim doesn't have an integrated debugger. What will you Vim fans do now?

    Edit: No, I'm not a hater.

    @Michelle "Jedïs don't need debuggers." But they can still get some ! Check vimawesome, there's tons of awesome plugins to make vim even more awesome ahah

    You think if someone use vim then he/she is a master of programming? Nope
    Anyone thinks this way is just an idiot not a master 😉

    Colemak > Dvorak TBH
    Been using it for 2 years. Analysis from carpalx say that has a slight advantage over Dvorak for fatigue while retaining the qwzxcvb positions for shortcuts.

    There is fresh wind with neovim, they got rid of the shitty code base and lots of limitations. Don't get me wrong, loving vim but neo has been created for some serious reasons. Give it a try and you will see what I mean.
    And for Dvorak, never had the time for such a big muscle memory change :) Is it worth it or just fancy to master it?

    @marcom within a month I knew how to use it without problems. But switched back to qwerty for ease of using other Pcs
