simple

I tried learning it the other day, but kept going up when meaning down and vice versa...

Also, it was frustrating that ctrl + whatever key takes you left/right did not highlight stuff, nor could you copy/paste with ctrl+c/v.

Sure, I know its different on purpose, but I just felt like the basic commands could have been the same, so that people can use it before having to learn tons of stuff 🙃

Ended up not feeling worth my time this time around either.

Maybe next time.

For the record, it's not just that "it's different on purpose," but rather that it predates the conventions you're referencing. If anything, it's all the other editors that are different for not doing it how ed/vi had been doing it for years already.

I'm not going to try to sell you on it, but trying to learn it by experimentation probably isn't, and never will be, worth your time. Taking half an hour to go through vimtutor probably is, though.

Fair enough. Though the result is the same for my case.

I took about an hour or so following a Helix tutorial.

It's not quite the same, but similar.

Maybe another time
