This here; when the tools are fit for purpose and make engineers’ jobs easier, you have to pry them from our fingers. All you have to do is look at the dedication to vim/emacs adaptations you’ll see in older coders to see the lengths to which we go to use the tools we feel work best.

It is a massive quality red flag if you have to force your staff to use a tool.

@offby1 Just imagine if the Vim project wrote this :)

"After your initial rollout, the Vim usage metrics dashboard helps you monitor how usage evolves over time. By exploring adoption, feature, model, and language trends, you can see how developers are engaging with Vim and identify areas where additional enablement or communication may drive deeper value."

@hugovk @offby1 Chris heard my mini rant about how most tools suck but it's not cool to force tools on devs.
