Learning VIM keybindings definitely have been one of the biggest productivity investments I've done across tools. And I rarely use vim.

However, I love the vim community and how they port VIM bindings to almost any IDE(or most software that works with text and allows for some extensions). Same way to deal with text across OS/Machines and software feels very liberating.

Hah. Same! Every so often I try something like LunarVim and want to be a 'real' vim user, but end up back in my IDEs with vim keybindings instead.

Have you tried Webstorm?

I have Intellij Ultimate. It's just really heavy when I'm moving around a js project. Not against it though, some colleagues use Intellij for everything and seem happy.
