Obsidian Cares About The Sanity Of Its Users

Ah, the sacred scrolls of developer archetypes. The Barbarian who worships C and recites man pages is just your average Unix greybeard who thinks anything after Perl is heresy. The Rogue is basically every crypto bro with questionable ethics and a VPN. Wizards are those mythical 10x developers whose code is so advanced no one can maintain it after they leave. Clerics are the TDD zealots who'd rather write tests than actually ship anything. And Druids? Just sysadmins who've spent so much time in server rooms they've started identifying as network packets. I've worked with all five. The Druid still owes me $20 and insists I call him "FoxTail69" at happy hour.

The ABSOLUTE SUPERIORITY COMPLEX that consumes your soul once you've conquered the ancient text editor Emacs! 💅 One minute you're struggling with keyboard shortcuts that require more fingers than an octopus has tentacles, and the next you're looking at VS Code peasants like they're coding with crayons. The transformation is COMPLETE - you've gone from normal developer to insufferable text editor elitist faster than you can say "M-x butterfly." Your friends will abandon you, but who needs friends when you have customizable keybindings?!

The text editor hierarchy is real and it's brutal . At the top, Vim/Emacs users look down on everyone with their terminal superiority complex. In the middle, VSCode/Spyder folks think they've found the perfect balance between power and sanity. And then there's the poor soul using whatever text editor came pre-installed with Ubuntu, probably Gedit or Nano, just trying to survive while everyone else judges their life choices. The coding elite have created their own caste system, and your editor choice reveals exactly where you belong in the programming social hierarchy. The deeper you go into customizing your .vimrc file, the more insufferable you become to everyone around you.

The perfect metaphor for the Vim user in every dev team. While everyone else is silently mourning the death of simplicity in text editors, that one developer just has to announce their undying loyalty to Vim. It's like a funeral for normal editing workflows, and the Vim enthusiast still can't resist the urge to tell everyone about their 47 custom keybindings and how they can delete a word with "diw" faster than you can reach for your mouse. The coffin might as well contain the remains of productive team discussions that don't devolve into editor wars.

Evolution of programmers: from creating their own compilers and bragging about government surveillance to being completely dependent on Stack Overflow and trapped in Vim. Left: The chad programmer of yesteryear, writing low-resolution 3D engines and custom compilers while casually mentioning CIA surveillance like it's a badge of honor. Right: Today's programmer, desperately googling "how to exit vim" for the 47th time while clutching a coffee mug and whimpering for help. The Spotify icon in the corner is just *chef's kiss* - because nothing says "productive coding session" like spending 30 minutes creating the perfect lo-fi playlist. Fun fact: The ":q!" command to exit Vim has been responsible for more developer tears than any code review in history.

The eternal editor war continues, but now with Olympic precision! On the left, we have the high-tech sniper with all the bells and whistles—VS Code armed with AI copilot and enough extensions to crash your RAM. Perfect form, specialized gear, probably takes 30 seconds just to load. Meanwhile on the right, there's our Notepad++ champion—slightly disheveled, glasses askew, but still somehow getting the job done with what's essentially a text file and a prayer. The coding equivalent of bringing a pistol to an artillery fight. And then there's me with Nano, watching from the audience with a slingshot and a rock. At least I can exit the editor without Googling how.
