i think you're mostly more modern than i am, despite being much older. i generally use grep rather than rg, screen rather than tmux, emacs rather than vim for programming (though i use vim on my phone and for writing email), no redis, no fuzzy find, and no ipad. the only differences in the opposite direction are that i usually use python or perl rather than sed and awk, and i do use syntax coloring—for me, terminal colors were one of the big pluses of moving from sunos 4 to linux

i don't think younger people using vim is a fad, but we'll see. vim to me, especially neovim, seems mostly like emacs in vi clothing
