I've tried helix a few times but I've also found it clashes violently with my vim muscle memory, largely because I still use vim in lots of not-vim environments like IdeaVim etc.
Clearly I've been able to have seperate modes in my mind for "traditional" keybindings, as I don't find myself having difficulty switching from a text field in my browser or chat apps and then going to vim and back, so I wonder if it's just a case of the helix muscle memory needing to be so ingrained, or if it's just in an uncanny-valley to the vim experience.
I feel the same way. I've put a lot of time into getting fast and efficient with Vim, so the benefits of another editor would have to be substantial to justify switching. As nice as Helix looks, I'm not sure it offers enough to make that leap.
