It's a very powerful text editor, and you probably wouldn't regret learning how to use it.

However like anything else, what the fuck are you going to be using it for? Would I recommend my mother to learn Vim so that she can better edit all the text documents that she edits (which is none)?

mfw i actually had to use vi editor at college

It's good to know since it runs everywhere (gui, command line, ports for everything) and is highly configurable. That said, it's not everything people make it appear to be. If you just want a good text editor that you can use in a gui environment, Atom is really good.

if you're going to be a programmer on unix boxes then yeah it'll come in handy. but you dont really NEED it anymore, even 10years ago you did but these days you can probably get away without it. having said that, learning vim (vi really) will do interesting things to your head cos its not really an editor its more a language which you use to edit with.

Yes.
"Sticking with an IDE" is like sticking to hunt & peck.

Why would you need to learn a text editor at all?
Just KISS and type.

I find a mixture of both to be the best of both worlds. I use a vim plugin for PyCharm, that way I get the fancy shit that comes with an IDE (magic refactoring, etc) plus the awesome editing/navigation shit that comes with vim.

OP, I recommend you learn vim and do exactly this. The power of vim is in its keybindings. The rest of vim is total garbage. So take the best from vim and retain the comfort and features of an IDE.

Is anything worth learning?

Idk, why don't you just try it?

What are you going to use yout workplace? What is gonna get you the most amount of work done in less time?

Everyone these days uses frameworks so you're gonna be dealing with a lot of boilerplate code .

Vim shortcuts are great , there's vim plugins for everything.

If you do any web development learn emmet, saves so much time.

You won't regret learning to use Vim but it's not really needed.

Honestly it's not that hard. Just go through vimtutotur if it'd your first time

learn it when/if you need it
