Oh look, there's a cool new app that runs in the terminal! Let's check out the feature list:
"Written in Rust!"
That's not a feature. No-one cares.
"Uses Vi-like bindings!"
Sure, keep thinking that makes you more productive.
"Opinionated!"
Listen here, you little shit.

On second thought, #Vi-like keybindings do have a couple of advantages: 1. Simplicity: you have to memorize them, but that's *easy* since they're single letters. 2. Familiarity: knowing you can open many text-based programs and type / to search or q to quit is a breath of fresh air. But no, most of us don't think "3wdb" when trying to delete the third word from the cursor. That's machine speak.
