Everything I hear about Helix makes it sound compelling, and I think I will need to try it out someday. I think the biggest problem for me, as someone who isn't a software dev, isn't anything inherent to Helix itself, but instead historical: a version of vi exists on every *nix system. By being good at vi, it doesn't matter where I ssh into, I can use the editor easily. I think if I had more of a use case for an editor for writing large amounts of code that would be different, but for someone who doesn't have to write much in the first place it's easier just to focus on the more universal option.
