  What are the differences and why do you prefer vim?

    As someone who switched from sublime to vim after college (dev team was all sublime), I second the request for any benefits of vim over sublime (aside from being cooler). I’ve been wanting to relearn using it with fluency, but can’t justify the time-sink/productivity loss yet.

    I would say that in terms of efficiency, Vim is >= Sublime. I have yet to see anyone using a GUI text editor beat the text editing speed of Vim. Plus, you are at full productivity when working with terminal. Think about how easy it is to ssh to a server and edit files with Vim.
