Vim
I think that Vim has been one of the big productivity increasing tools for me. I had some challenges when learning them but after a while things got going and I felt more productive. What I enjoy the most is the easy and simple ways I can quickly manipulate text and get going. It kind of abstracts away the boring parts of it.

Emacs
Emacs can be defined as a cult. I have not delved down that rabbit hole, and I do not think I intend to.
Cults are cool if you are in them, so maybe it is worth it. Who am I to know.
