- f_devd 1y agoOnly extension system, but honestly I've never missed it in 3y of usage coming from nvim.
- varbhat 1y agovim keybinding. helix doesn't have vim keybindings. it might or might not be better but it isn't vim keybinding.
- pavon 1y ago* VIM Keybindings: I have muscle memory of Vim. Helix is strongly inspired by vim, but it is not attempting to be a drop-in replacement, and it is not possible to configure it to have the same behavior as vim with custom key-bindings because there are many things that work fundamentally differently between the two editors.
- milliams 1y agoIts keybindings aren't identical to vim. They're very similar in many places, but are also different in quite common things like deleting lines etc. (dd vs xd)

- varbhat 1y agoIt's a soft fork trying to catch up with the main codebase. It feels like a second class citizen. Features introduced in Helix might not be intended for usage with vim keybindings anyway.
