Not really a frontend on Vim or NeoVim though are they? They’re emulations which are very nice but not the real thing.

It’s the uncanny valley situation again. For example, in Vim, like all terminals by default you can use C-h as backspace. In Emacs though that’s bound to help.

So now I have to rebind that and make a decision on what should now be help. That’s just the start on the thread pulling and tweaky just to get back to my expected behaviour.

Emacs is great but it’s not Vim. You could argue thatonce configured you have all the new power of Emacs but ome of just want a better Vim. Not Emacs. Even if it’s brilliant.

NeoVim is not quiet Vim which isn't vi either and all are terminal editors first so GUIs may never be as good for them. When I started with Emacs I thought I might use it in the terminal after Vim vs GVim but it's GUI is worth it.

I wasn't long enough using Vim to depend on C-h but if you've the time for all the config it's great to have the options. That reminds me I must still make so changes to Vim Vixen to be more like Vimperator was. It's great having the basic vim commands in Emacs as well, maybe not in org-agenda.
