I heard reports of Vim-ers switching to Emacs because of Org. Turn to the dark side, we have cookies!!! Bwahahaha! (Side note: despite jokes, I have a high respect for Vim. Its UI is plain genius, even if I do not like it personally. The idea of "text objects" and operations on them is really great. I even use hjkl for movement when coding in Elisp, using abo-abo's "lispy" package. The main advantage of Emacs over Vim is not the UI, but the hackability. Also, E & V have different basic assumptions: Vim is much closer to the Unix philosophy, while Emacs does a similar thing, but not on the OS level, but within itself. IOW, Vim is built on top of Unix, and Emacs largely "replaces" it.)
