I was lucky enough that my first employer ran the very first 4.2BSD in Denmark outside academia (on a DEC-VAX/750), so i grew up with Bill Joy's newfangled "vi" and spent countless hours recap'ing the cheat sheet. To this day stuff like "3dw" and "d}{{[P" are just second nature. Very much enjoying moders stuff like neovim and CoC/LSP too. And yes, nvim is perferctly suitable for Java and maven with ctags/ripgrep/fzf etc. plugins
