Emacs vs Vim

Which is better?

Personally I use Emacs just because modal editing seemed too strange to me.  Typing 'i' every time I wanted to type something was annoying, so I just learned Emacs instead.

Please be civil in this discussion about programming.  If you wish to troll and be rude, try one of the image boards.

I for one don't use number commands in most cases when they'd be applicable. Instead, I prefer the "text objects" that allow me to select and replace the current word, sentence, paragraph, string, brace pair, etc.; though when I can see at a glance that there are only two to four entities I need to change, I'd rather type c3w than veeec or something like that.
