me: how do i do this thing in blender??
you: its pretty simple. all you do is
@jk hey, someone created Vi for Graphics!
@natecull oh also the way you select stuff has different numbers of modes depending on what edit mode you're in, either 2 or sometimes 6, and also theres another 5 entirely separate other modes which let you select what thing you're rotating things around. at this point i feel like it must be nonsensical to even call them 'modes' since theyre surely just, like, options? but no, all of them control exactly what you can do with your mouse & keyboard at that moment
@jk @natecull i got a headache just reading this
