I refuse to see how vim and emacs is worth learning. I only use it because that's the only option when editing server files. Beyond this, I couldn't imagine coding in these environments from scratch.

Go watch a dev who is competent with vim/emacs and you will feel like a 7 year old on a tablet. I didn't give neovim a try until I was thoroughly embarrassed with my ability as a professional text editor (software dev).

Is it the motions you don't like or the editor itself? After 3 days with the motions I could never go back.

I like mouse more.

and only thing bottlenecking my work right now is me not my tools.

I personally die a little every time I need to take my fingers off the keyboard and reach for the mouse.
