I develop only in vim, i find it way better that any modern gui.
VSCode with the VIM mode plugin is kind of the best of both worlds.
I dislike the graphical interface. Console helps me to be more productive.
Maybe it was just me, but I found VSCode's undo/redo vim trees (u/r) to be kind of awkward when compared to real vim.
Native vim? Or with an elaborate preference file?
I personally have grown so accustomed to vim that if I have to ssh to a new (to me) server I would rather use stock vi (which in most systems is actually an alias for vim) to any other editor. But honestly I have made an alias for a script that ports over my elaborate vimrc file for every first login to a new server or instance lol. It makes me feel a little like a diva 💁💅
Vim with a minimal preference file, but sometimes vim only, i don't like vi cause it lacks syntax highlighting
