Mastodon needs a quality "vim or emacs" shouting match.

@skroo We can start one: Vim! Only because it's installed by default on most distros, I'm not a programmer, and I know how to use it. All you emacs users have to actually install it before you use it, so inefficient.

@golero "My dog barks, some. Mentally you picture my dog, but I have not told you the type o' dog which I have. Perhaps you might even picture Toto... from "The Wizard of Oz." But I can tell you, my dog is all ways with me. ARF!"

I use Vim

@golero @skroo Why would I need emacs to be installed on my target machine when I have tramp mode :)

@skroo Boringly, I appreciate and use both tools for different things, so I'm no help there

@nathanic Bah you probably use tabs AND spaces too.

@skroo Ha, but no, I have to draw the line somewhere. Always spaces, but with good editors that make them feel like tabs. (Well, except for assy formats like Makefile that require hard tabs.)

@skroo Emacs for me. God damn spacemacs is just everything I wanted.

@skroo i just saw a shatner Vs Patrick Stewart on about to start
