I found myself coming home to vim recently, as well—I just now call it [helix](https://helix-editor.com).

Cuteness aside: for all the awesomeness that a tailored vim setup provides, I haven't been able to keep one stable since a decade ago, when I used an ubuntu desktop for work. Maybe I'm just getting old, but Helix's batteries-included approach to reimplementing vim has resulted in a much better experience for me in practice, even though it's lost me some features in theory (I miss you, vim-fugitive!).

And my hands can't even tell it's not vim…mostly!
