    Hahaha so funny history! But to start with vim, everyone recommends using vimtutor, he said nothing about this. 🤔

    I just stole someone else’s config that was shared as a neovim flake which I don’t customize at all because I’m scared to open neovim since I can’t seem to close it without googling. 🤣🤣

      The LunarVim install process can be kinda a pain to start, but I find it fills a wierd spot between neovim and vsodium – I still use nvim for making quick edits to files (especially in compiled languages) but still use vscode for really big multifile projects. LunarVim just takes too long to boot to be a drop-in neovim replacement, and the file explorer is too unintuitive to use for many files simultaneously, even as a longtime vim user. I like LunarVim, but I think it has its own usability niche, and I dont find myself using it as much as I’d like.

      Quite frankly, base neovim is still pretty functional for me, but the complexity of installing extensions just encourages me to use it as a text editor rather than an IDE, which is largely fine by me.
