Why I started to use Vim 5 years ago. I was coding a lot and I realised most of my work was editing code as text. So I figured, why not become really freaking good at it? Vim has a steep learning curve because it's a mental paradigm shift. I personally would recommend it to everyone because although no-code is taking off, most of the developers are still editing text. Sharpen that saw!

> no-code is taking off

I don't see any evidence for that.

There are many aspects underlying digital transformations that large enterprises are undergoing...among the many, is to empower more "citizen developers" with tools that are lower-code and no-code. (I'm not convinced that no-code is a great thing just yet...but not because of the tools, rather the mindset...so we'll see how the next generation adopt these no-code tools...or not). Within these transformations, the premise of "no code" is becoming bigger and more popular...so if you're not seeing it yet, you will soon enough more and more. Not that my following note is a large representation, but when i was applying for a new job during latter 2019/early 2020, over 90% of the jobs that i applied to made mention of some sort of "digital transformation", and no-code/low-code goes part and parcel with those types of efforts. Again, low volume of data, and biased towards mid- and large-sized enterprises...but, it is a thing for sure.

You shouldn't be editing "text" but "code" however. Text editing is low productivity task whereas code editing should happen mostly be at much higher level.
