Emacs literally calls it’s Vim emulation Evil mode :)
In all seriousness though, I say Emacs mostly because being a Lisp machine, it’s turing-complete. There’s web browsers in Emacs, PDF readers, email clients, EXWM is literally Emacs as your window manager.
Also what I’ve realized recently is… Vim keybindings aren’t even that great beyond being modal, anyways. Some dude made an Emacs plugin called Xah-Fly-Keys that makes it modal, but works off of what commands are used often rather than how Vim does stuff like making the “go to the end of the line” key $ for some reason. With Emacs being something you can sort of just live in, I can bring my workflow into it rather than praying that what I’m using has vim key support.
(Fuck I’m participating in the editor wars, fuck my life)
