+# Vim and Editors in General
+
+So I've been using Vim for nearly as long as I've been using Linux. I still
+vaguely remember awkwardly working `vimtutor` for the first time. Before I
+touched Vim, I didn't really have any strong preference for an editor on Linux.
+I'd just come from Windows where I'd used Notepad++ to edit small text files and
+Visual Studio and JetBrains Rider for my college work at the time -- mainly C#
+in conjunction with Unity. Sure, these editors got the job done, but they
+weren't... Elegant. Visual Studio and Rider are monstrous pieces of software
+with several kitchen sinks. And I'm sure Notepad++ has some really cool features
+that I've never touched, but then it didn't really feel inviting to me and thus
+I never dug deeper. When moving to Linux, I mainly used Gedit to edit the odd
+ini file. This got rather tedious when needing root privileges to edit, say an
+`sshd_config` file. Sure, you can open Gedit using `sudo`, but that makes the
+terminal window from which you start it useless as long as Gedit is running. On
+top of that, it being a GTK application means that it spews a lot of output to
+`STDOUT`. At this point -- not wanting to dig into Vim yet -- I found out Nano
+is a thing. I never liked it. It's always felt something like a clunky
+on-graphical Windows Notepad of Linux.
+
+So after a little while I decided to bite the bullet and start up `vimtutor`.
+As mentioned before, it was awkward at first. But I could also see the power
+that the anatomy of Vim allows the user to wield and decided to commit at least
+the basics to muscle memory.
+
+# Plugins and NeoVim
+
+From here it would only be a matter of time.
