I agree that vim is a perfectly fine text editor.

Yet half the (neo)vim people in this thread are yelling it's the One True IDE that can, in fact, do everything, and if you are using VSCode or IntelliJ or whatever then you must be a noob or too lazy to invest time in your tools.



That is a massive exaggeration, indeed outright misrepresentation, of what people are saying.


I quote:

"IDEs are easy mode and waste of resources. Its ok to start with them as a noob, but down the line i want to customize every part of my toolchain. (And thats just horrible to do in VSCode etc..)"
