It is like this in the beginning but you come out the other end actually knowing how to change your editor to be what you want.
To me, neovim made it really fun to edit code again, and I spent months with it, learning lua from scratch, even wrote plugins for it that got popular.
The shortcuts makes it really easy to jump around in code fast and all the different plugins feels like getting constant upgrades. :)
sorry I will not be tricked again into this bs editor, life is too short to configure vim
IDK honestly hacked together a config over the weekend and have been using it for a couple months now. Definitely not perfect but it works pretty nicely. Occasionally use Helix as my backup editor, but eventually I just learned to live with my “good enough” config.
(Seriously, a lot of configs are pretty bloated. Not every little thing really needs to be optimized…)
I really want to go back to neovim just to create "my editor" on top of it from scratch, maybe by the end of the year
