Calling it a code editor is like calling my car a “work transport vehicle”
Vim is an all purpose text-editing machine and although it has some definite quirks it solves problems. If you’ve used original vi you’ll know just how much more amazing vim is without changing the core concepts.
Much love to Bram, you made the world a better place ❤️

Man, I'm sad 😔.
I knew him personally (we worked for the same company at a point in time, although very different departments). I'm also a heavy vim user.
We once were in the same meeting where the unsuspecting meeting chair was taking nodes in emacs org-mode. Most of other meeting members were not geeks, so nobody knew who Bram was. I said "Bram, look at this, they're taking notes in emacs just to piss you off", to which he responded "yeah, and it is horrible...." 😁
Farewell and :wq
He advertised his charity on every release, I’m sure they’d appreciate donations in his honor.
