As an Emacs user, I'm so curious about vim packages. Does vim have packages that are akin to adding a major mode in Emacs? Some of the packages on this list look like the vim version of minor modes or little helper functions.
You spend most of your time in Vim (when editing) in normal mode, executing deft movements and register usage to behave as a surgeon upon the text, as it were. Vim's noun/verb with multipliers make this an effective editing paradigm. Enlightened users have reported "thinking in Vim."
Vanilla Emacs to a vim user feels like you're always in "insert" mode. Chording everything felt a little weird, and I gave up on evil-mode because it wasn't vim enough for me.
