I dream of a Vim that wóuld guide and teach me how to use it, so that it does not scare away people because they can’t close it.

I dream of a Vim that embraces the needs of editing contemporary programming languages and fills in its UX gaps correspondingly (changes single to double quotes, anyone? Function argument order?).

I dream of a Vim with native Git gutters.

I dream of a Vim with sane default leader commands.

I dream of a Vim where I see line numbers by default.

I dream of a Vim where “Y” is consistent with other commands.

I dream of a Vim that detects correct indentation by default. And that can visualise whitespace.

I dream of a Vim where Ctrl+V does not have an assigned action that looks like it blocks input.

I dream of a Vim that experiments with keyboard ergonomics, not just mnemonics.

I dream of a Vim where quintuple-tapping Escape is not a habit I subconsciously form why learning it.

I dream of a Vim I stumble on people discovering and exploring, and not have to persuade people for months just to try it.
