I’ve used vim for so many years now that it blows my mind when people act like it’s difficult to use.
The same thing with installing Arch and even Gentoo … if you’ve got good experience with something like redhat/centos and can read documentation it’s a breeze.
What? A task gets easier the more experience you got with it? I think you’re in for a Nobel price or something.
Ha, I’m aware it was stating the obvious, but I never found vim difficult in the beginning either. I was given a “linux cheat sheet” and then told to bugger off and do stuff… vim took maybe 15-20 mins before I was comfortable.
The hardest part was learning how my company’s ancient software worked honestly, which even after six years there was still intimidating and baffling at times.
