So true- I was talking to someone about vim the other day and wanted to tell them the keybinding for something I use daily, but had no idea what it was without a keyboard there for reference.
I don't know a language. Some sort of decision freeze. I've tried Lua, C#, Linux BASH, and Java. I went from learning C# to homelabbing proxmox. I have more success learning IT stuff.
Also I haven't used Vim or Emacs, but I used to rebind ALL of my keys in every game I played. I deeply love keybinding and using the keyboard rather than the mouse.
This feels like me, especially when I have six different splits in a full screen terminal screen between vim and tmux and someone asks how I'm doing that.
At times, I've also juggled (in addition to vim and tmux) hotkeys for my current tiling WM of choice and extra hotkeys to swap between machines via barrier. I'm not sure how I'm able remember what I had for breakfast, much less someone's name.
You may enjoy Vim Adventures to get some context - and it's pretty fun. It teaches the wild and powerful keybindings for the Vim text editor, but in the form of an online typing game.
There's also autokey, similar to autohotkey but with Python. I haven't had to use it for much but I didn't have any issues when I used it for some RuneScape autogrinding
Had this been emacs it would have been funny. But with Vim you don't remember key bindings. Vim has operations and motions. Few od each and they are combined.
I don't understand why you hate seeing the same meme twice. Also I don't think I ever saw it on lemmy. I don't think it's a meme that's reposted all over, because I haven't seen it on Reddit either and only saw it for the first time when specifically searching for vim memes. If I see a meme more than once and it's a good meme, I enjoy it. Why do you not do the same?
