Native vim? Or with an elaborate preference file?
I personally have grown so accustomed to vim that if I have to ssh to a new (to me) server I would rather use stock vi (which in most systems is actually an alias for vim) to any other editor. But honestly I have made an alias for a script that ports over my elaborate vimrc file for every first login to a new server or instance lol. It makes me feel a little like a diva 💁💅
Vim with a minimal preference file, but sometimes vim only, i don't like vi cause it lacks syntax highlighting
