    Thank you for telling me all this neat stuff! :D

    I think I get what you are intending to imply by the word “intuitively”; it’s that it eventually becomes as reflexive and fluid as touch-typing itself.

    Gosh you make it sound almost like you play Vim like an instrument more than use it…!

    Honestly that sounds cool _

      Exactly like that!

      It’s also another source of the many “I can’t exit Vim” jokes, because it is now genuinely disorienting for me to try to edit text without Vim key bindings.

      That’s a great analogy. It does very much feel that way.

      It is pretty cool.

      Wether it’s really worth the learning curve is probably unique to each person that tries it. But for folks who need to edit a lot of text a lot of the time, it’s pretty great.
