But isn't Neovim a legitimate Vim?

• johncoltrane 8y ago
  Vim is a text editor, not a category of text editors. Neovim is another text editor, forked from Vim to allow a more ambitious roadmap and a different development model. While they are still largely compatible they simply aren't the same thing so they shouldn't be called the same.

    Ubuntu 18.04 symlinks /usr/bin/vim to nvim when you install Neovim, so it kind of calls them the same. But ok, I agree that technically they are 100% different
