Late 30s dev here: I've never cared to learn emacs or vim, tried when younger, but left it. Am I a fraud?

I used to be a vim fan but now I only use it for modifying files over SSH. Other than that I code with an IDE, you can't beat all the plugins and linters with a in-terminal editor. A colleague still codes in emacs and its code is dirty af.

PEBKAC - don't blame emacs (not sure why anyone would use it when vim exists, though)
