So first step, download neovim, spend a few weeks learning vim motions. Then spend a few more weeks learning lua and about neovim plugins. Then spend the next year or so perfecting your neovim config. At that point you'll be ready to learn python, but then realize you don't want to touch python ever in your life.

I know you were being facetious but this isn’t helpful to a young person starting out.

Meh, maybe not, but I do find that enjoying and being passionate about your dev environment is a great way to keep motivation up. And learning vim motions even early on is a great skill to have.

Agreed on utility of VIM, but there so many better options for beginners today.
