Helix is great except when you switch to vim for whatever reason and everything is backwards

This was the thing that stopped me from hopping over in the first place, the vim binds just make too much sense

Personally I kinda prefer helix bindings but vim bindings I think are far more useful to know when using anything other than helix

Honestly I'm sure they are great but vim bindings are near ubiquitous amongst technologies now so it's difficult to get everyone to move away from it.
