Oh wow this so sad. Ever since I used vimtutor the first time, Ive used vim keys in every editor I used. Hopefully the project keeps doing well without him, its a great piece of software.
31 0 ReplyMy entire life has vim key bindings. My window manager and browser all have vim key bindings. I work in vim. I write my shopping lists in vim.
I really can't overstate how ingrained vim is in my day to day life. Bram had a big impact.

I hope it ultimately re-organizes as more of a community effort now like neovim.
5 0 ReplyI don't want to sound like an asshole but maybe we all should focus on Neovim from now on. I find in much better than original Vim in many ways.
