I went through the vim tutorial a few years ago, tried neovim for a
while, but haven't used it in years.  I tend to switch between editors.
Before Kakoune I used Acme for a long time, which inspired some features
of Kakoune.  I also use Emacs quite a bit.
I tried Kakoune mostly because I really liked the ideas in Acme but
didn't like how anti-keyboard it was.  The simple orthogonal
configuration language and its focus on multiple selections were very
appealing too.  I don't like old editors with crusted up config
languages and UX conventions.  I could never really "git gud" at neovim,
so I abandoned it, but Kakoune just "clicked" after 1-2 afternoons of
noodling around in it.
