I never said that a "newbie" would be able to use Vim in one day, I said that it doesn't require "a learning curve and a willingness to immerse yourself in a whole new feature-set".

Idk but I feel that way 😅, maybe being used to Windows and GUI my whole life and I kind of feel intimidated by these kinds of software and stuff.

I spent most of my time on Windows... I was feeling the same about Vim till I tried it seriously ;)

Cause you like VS Code, you can just use the 'Vscodevim' extension. Pretty popular and it works for me. You can even create your own shortcuts like assigning 'jj' to 'Esc'

Yes I saw the extension, but I am want to learn Vim slowly as it's very efficient and productive.
