  • Just get used to

    • using movement (hjkl),
    • going between insert and normal modes (i and esc),
    • undoing (u from normal mode),
    • and saving (:w and :wq).

    Don’t try to do it all at first, just get comfortable with the essentials. You can even just stay in insert mode (the only mode in most editors) at first.

    Keep a vim basics cheat sheet handy for a couple weeks as you’re building in muscle memory, then slowly work in more advanced techniques and combinations.

    It doesn’t take long before you start having a lot of fun just manipulating text.

    PS here’s a decently basic cheat sheet I found: image describing basic vim keyboard bindings and commands

    I think this might be something you can reprogram. It wasn’t my intention, but I’ve been hitting the weekly market a lot more and as a result my tastes have veered naturally to fresh and vegan stuff.

    I’ll still accept food with animal products on em if that’s all there is, but I recently discovered that I find meat and cheese kind of… gross? I used to eat like that every week, but now I look forward to my daily apple and like 3 o’clock chia seed pudding. It’s fucked.

    I don’t know if I somehow caused this or if it’s just age, but I have been feeling pretty good.

    E: sorry I just reread my comment in the context of yours and I apologise for being shitty. I think the point I was trying to make was that it’s like quitting smoking or something - at first feels like something real is missing, then later feels like a no brainer
