If an IDE doesn't have vi key bindings it isn't going to be used by me. That's what finally get me to change from terminal only dev to vscode. Until I found the vi editing extension the IDE wasn't of interest.

Yes, vi is just that good.

I hear emacs bindings are also great, but I just know how to save and exit from emacs.

Emacs keybinds are fine, used them for some years. But once I tried modal bindings I never wanted to go back, "key-chords" just add strain.

Fortunately emacs has many options for modal keybindings, I prefer meow over vim personally
