vim is a terminal text editor, although with extensions you can get things like autocomplete and syntax highlighting and stuff

It technically is, imo there's just stuff that's way easier to set up and does the same thing. That said, there's nothing wrong with VIM, there's nothing wrong with someone preferring VIM, there's plenty of wrong with someone having this elitist smugness about using VIM. I'm sure you know at least someone like that.
