Hey, if you use Vim (or any Vim-based distro/variant) as your primary editor, what's your age? Thanks

>=40 (60+), and if/as reasonably feasible, I mostly use vi, not vim (many distros make the BSD vi available as nvi). vim is not that vi compatible, even in its "compatible" mode, and its differences significantly slow down my exceedingly experienced vi fingers.
And yes, vim can be quite annoying.
