I’d like actual examples instead of “I work faster”, something like “I can move straight to the middle of the file with 7mv” or “I can keep 4 different text snippets in memory and paste each with a number+pt, like 2pt”, things that you actually use somewhat frequently instead of what you can do, but probably only did once.

    you can delete a line in most ides by having a cursor in the line and pressing ctrl+x (with the side effect of putting it in the clipboard)

      Truth. I should have mentioned I’m not a huge fan of multi key combos to perform actions. I guess that’s why I gravitate towards vim over emacs. Good to know though.
