That's the beauty of vi since we learned it decades ago and our fingers
know it better than our mind does at this point, and it works on all
platforms (yes, even on Android although the "escape" part is a PITA).

For me, I only use Notepad++ to normalize web page copies from various
sources so that the punctuation is consistent, as I don't edit with it.

If I was a kid starting out today though, I probably wouldn't pick vi.
But, I'll go to my grave using vi since it's what I learned decades ago.

Note: I've tested every free Android text editor ever suggested on the
Android newsgroup and decided early on that vi was not a keeper at all. :)
