why VIM in 2015 or 201*

VIM
VIM[hipster/*nix SWAG] is terminal based text-editor used  by many programmers for a long time.
installed by default in most POSIX systems.
so i'am going to try it instead of using sublime2 text editor

Reasons to switch/why VIM
1-VIM is almost universal[sublime you have to install it].
2-VIM doesn't need X11 to run[sublime is GUI app].
3-VIM is more versatile in situation like SSH tunneling[maybe no X11 right?].
4-VIM free and opensource
5-VIM is more lightweight.

Q- But in 2015 should i use a terminal based text-editor ?
Ans- YES !! [click yes to find cool video :)]
i'll be blogging my journey with VIM.
