You make a good point and I agree 100%; itinerant very reasonably priced. I realize that my comment only highlighted the price being the only factor in my decision to move to other editor. It’s really more like 10% of the reason. My main reason is not having my development experience tied to a single non-open source product. Jetsbrains + ideavim lead to a very highly customizable experience (things like quick lists, triggering ide menu options from ideavim bindings, etc) however it’s still not as configurable as the open source alternatives. Plus I get the benefit of not leaving the shell. This, the price and several other reasons led me to commit to it (another big reason is that it’s just plain fun; the things you can build\come up with to speed your development experience is honestly more of a hobby at this point. So it’s not even about the speed to get things done but something that’s just very enjoyable)
