GET THE TORCHES AND PITCHFORKS!!!
Nah, who cares. We even have guys around who claim that they like vim. Just another crazy isn't a reason to get torches. We save them for a real occasion.
I wouldn't say like, I just don't know how to quit it.

And here I've just been shutting the power off for years!

like? I fing love Vim. It's like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich made of sunk cost fallacy and Stockholm syndrome.
I've spent years using it, so I know every (reasonable) key combination and don't need my mouse* to wiz around even very large documents. It's on every pc/server I use by default, it's on my phone. I can run it on a server from a console window with no window manager.
I get there's a lot not to like, but it's like 10% of my DevOPS superpower.
