you should install doom emacs. it has some vim stuff baked into it and you also get the absolutely awesome git ui that I can't stress enough is the best piece of software written in a long time. sounds like hyperbole but it's seriously so well made.

doom emacs. press spacebar to get a menu of things you can do and you also get a bunch of vim stuff for free. I don't use emacs as a daily driver but I still use it exclusively for the magit mode for git.

a caveat that you should be aware of is that you do need to learn a bit about emacs. what's a frame/buffer and how to kill them but that's not too bad.
