Are there any use cases left for "productive" and "ergonomic" text editors, if clanker types faster anyway?
>>109628425if the speed of typing is your only concern,cat /dev/random does it faster.also modal text editors are a gatekeeping timewasting snobbery.
The usecase for vim for me wasn't that it was ergonomic or efficient.It's that it's in the console and that it works alongside other cli tools.
>>109628425i don't use clanker. well, I do, but only for sex chats
>>109628425It's fun. Neurotypicals wouldn't understand
>>1096284251) it's cli, that shit can run on potato hardware reliably.2) buffer navigation. if right, you can move around marked points in a buffer (do they still call them that on modern text editors?) or text file with ease, which helps if you need to read long shit.
>>109628441>timewastingI don't get this argument. I learned vim bindings in a few weeks in high school and probably saved orders of magnitude more time writing code in college and at work.But >>109628425 is right. All you need these days is Claude Code and Notepad (maybe not even that). Programming as an art is dead.
>>109628441>are a gatekeeping timewasting snobberythat's how I feel about people are who are anti AI
>>109630327>in a few weekshere's your time waste.modal editing and macro-enabled keyboard-focused ergonomics are completely orthogonal.
>>109628425Typing code fast is retarded. You need to be checking your docs every two seconds so why tf would you be using Vim?
