Maybe because I’m also a maker I don’t expect my tools to do everything… what’s wrong with using vim for what it does very well, and then Sublime (geany, kate) when a gui is just easier?

Nothing at all!

But the way I use my editor is that I'm usually in it all day. Both for editing code, but also for personal notes, etc. So it's on all day and I spend most of my time in it.

This effectively means I have one tool that I mainline. I'll still use vim in the odd situation where I can't use my main editor, but it's usually just easier for me to open files in the editor I already have open.
