Yeah, having used both, my preference is for Emacs, which also comes with the bonus of menu driven ways of doing most things when you've been away long enough to have forgotten a keyboard shortcut. I have always needed a cheat sheet handy when away from vim for a few months

i've moved to helix, partly to stop myself tinkering and partly because the reversed command model is just easier. plus it has popup helpers.
