    You are missing out! I used to only use vim to edit config files. So I knew my way around (albeit, slowly). I installed the IdeaVim plugin a week ago and learned some new key bindings I wasn’t using. A week in I’m almost faster than before! And it’s only going to get better after I’ve acquired muscle memory (I’m nearly there.) and move on to complex key bindings/sequences. Then it will probably be as if the cursor is directly connected to my mind. I’m hopeful because I’ve seen a mentor of mine do it.

        I don’t think you understood what I said. I started using vim key bindings ALSO in my IDE and my speed improved because of it. I didn’t ask you to stop using vi. I merely suggested that you used MORE of it. If your Emacs setup already use vim keybindings that’s exactly what I’m doing too.
