Maybe I’m just bad at Vim (though I use Vim keys anywhere possible), bit I’m starting to wonder if Vim combos crowd mental space that would be better used for programming. It does take a certain amount of mental energy to constantly be computing effecient key combos. And the half seconds of moving the hand to the mouse are mindless, allowing for the brain to remain focused on next steps.
On another note, the productivity I’ve gained from using an actual IDE, particularly for things like moving files, renaming symbols, and other refactoring tasks, has probably saved me far more time and headache than avoiding to use the mouse.
