> I’ve always wondered why some people seem so married to a single editor.
I'm thinking exactly opposite. I wonder why people change their IDE's/Editors so much between Eclipse/Visual Studio/IntelliJ or between notepad++/sublime-text/atom/VScode/coda/text-mate etc.
What's wrong with using vim or emacs and being happy rest of your career? It's funny so many of my colleagues kid me by saying "emacs is a great operating system but it lacks a good editor" without ever trying it while I'm using emacs without a problem for the last 6-7 years and people around me changing their editors every year to "popular editor of the year" for better features/performance.
