I'm righthanded and I usually hold my phone in my left hand so I can do clicking and typing with my right hand, but I often do basic scrolling with my left thumb.
I would like to add one note: if I were an activist in Iran, or in any other way my livelihood would depend on strong privacy services, I might keep using your service and even be (slightly) more certain of the company's resolve to keep my privacy protected. Although I would be very aware of the irony. But choosing for one's own safety can override other concerns. Very few things in life are black and white.
A company shouldn't be able to fire an employee over their opinion,[0] so that wouldn't matter to me. For a major owner, the donation amount starts to matter to me around $5-10K, but YMMV.
[0] I suppose unless they have a very influential position and it's about a matter that contradicts main company goals
The guy owns half the company, so a significant part of the money I'm paying is involved. Yes, it is quite ethical to decide based on matters like that. It's not an employee or minor shareholder.
"Mullvad AB and its parent company Amagicom AB are 100% owned by founders [1 person] and Daniel Berntsson [...]"[0]
So I'll assume he owns about 50%. Well, that ends my usage of Mullvad.[1] I appreciate that probably many of Mullvad's employees have different views, and obviously Berntsson has every right to his opinions and to express them, and I also appreciate that someone can have control over an opinionated company and run it for one particular set of reasons but not for other causes that someone believes in, but in the end I just don't want my money supporting anti-people causes.
I'm roughly at the same level. The main improvement of vim over vi is the infinite undo, and more recently the UTF-8 support. I like the more elaborate status line and the syntax colouring, and I actually have cpoptions set to "downgrade" a few (but not all) features to how they were in vi ( notably vx$ so text you're changing remains visible while you're typing over it, and Esc actually executes the command line).
It is more like a one-line visual mode, you can actually use the same commands as there. Depending on terminal capabilities (that's why there are apparently three submodes), you can move the cursor left and right, and insert and delete text. IIRC, I once somehow got it in a very limited "dumb terminal" mode, and it printed \ for every deleted character.
I mostly used it when I logged in over a 1200 baud modem. The terminal would have supported working full-screen, but it was just quicker to not keep the entire screen visible all the time (even though classic vi is already very efficient about screen updates).
