My biggest focus in using vim was to get it out of the way so that I could focus on the Haskell. I wanted the environment (editor, compiler, window manager, test runner, etc) to be as transparent as possible. This is not, in point of fact, a series of vim tutorial videos.
I will make a video that explains my dev environment as a supplement, however.
I'd be happy to answer any vim questions in the comments (github issues, which I will hopefully figure out how to embed in the site eventually), and I do like the idea of adding call out boxes (no need to use subtitles, they can go on the video itself) to highlight interesting vim trickery.
I appreciate your opinion but I will respectfully point out that I am making these videos for the other set of people who do like video coding tutorials. You should feel free to not watch them if they do not preserve the water-dorsal relationship of your water-going vessel. :)
Thank you all so much for your feedback. And thanks to the OP for posting this. I can't make everyone happy all the time but I'll do my best to make each episode better than the last.
"I'm always surprised by those that will hem and haw over something that's not open-source." Open source has its place, as does proprietary software. Hemming and hawing aside, your market votes with their feet -- and that's exactly how you'll find out if you're properly situated.
That said, can you please not turn a post about Fun into a marketing platform for NOLOH? Fun may be fun, but your elevator pitch definitely isn't.
