I won't go into vi vs emacs, whatever suits you is fine. I use 'vi' for my everyday work, as a Golang/Python ide, as a simple notepad and as a todo.txt editor. If you have read the link I shared, it pretty much covers why you should be using vi.

There are just too many things that counts as an advantage over any tradition text editor, a few of them are

• Ability to move around in code base with ease
• Tons of plugins
• Buffers & Registers
• More advanced stuffs

The learning curve is steep, I agree, but the reward is way more than what you spend. Also, vi can be fancy. A few plugins, and it becomes a full fledged IDE. Check this out!
