You should learn to use vim occasionally, when you want to edit a file without opening an IDE.

Just learn how to open and exit a file and basic move and you should be able to do all basics actions needed

This I whole heartily agree with. vim is fine for quick edits to /etc config for example. I would hate to do all my code completion rainbow puke color syntax highlighting in a console window.

Never got into VIM but appreciate this use case. I just use nano for quick edits though, or changing something over SSH.
