vim has stolen years of productivity from me. i've listened to loudmouthed vim advocates, tweaked my editor settings, played with plugins. but the problems that i needed to solve - code navigation, autocomplete, debugging - were all easily solved by switching to visual studio. nowadays i use vs with the vsvim extension (years of vim trauma have burned the key bindings into my muscle memory) and am much more productive with that setup than with the janky vim config from my uni days.
