Re: "Kakoune - weird bindings I'm kind of trying to use kakoune,…"
I was trying to edit some .asm code in kakoune, and after a while noticed that inserting a tab in the middle of an existing line reformats the line in a most bizzare way - a tab is prepended to the entire line, other things move... I guess that's enough kakoune for me...

@karel, I will try helix next. I have no problems with deviating from historical conventions. Although at this point I would be happy with a vim that didn't do completely weird shit. Like when I press <Enter> in normal mode, a line is inserted after the line the cursor is on. That just makes zero sense to me, every time. Or moving the cursor back every time I switch from insert to normal. I experience dissonance every time that happens.

Kakoune - weird bindings I'm kind of trying to use kakoune, because I kind of like the idea of selecting then acting. But it's slow going, and I am not yet grokking it. I am also annoyed by the reliance on Alt-key combinations - the whole point of a modal editor is to use regular keys in normal mode...
