- joemi 4y agoI'm not the person you asked, but in my case it's mostly a "if it's not broke, don't fix it" situation. I don't need neovim since vim is just fine for me. There are a few neovim-only plugins I wouldn't mind trying out sometime, but I don't need them, and I use very few plugins so they probably wouldn't make the cut for me anyway. And there aren't any neovim-only features I care about (besides mild interest in a few plugins). That's what most of my personal "resistance" is about. The rest is due to fact that I'm still a little bitter from some bad interactions with some early neovim developers and fans.
- teruakohatu 4y agoI have an old vim config that I haven't had motivation to switch over to Neovim. I find configuration frameworks, which are so popular right now, a lot of work to understand and not very flexible/opinionated. Lastly, vim is usually available everywhere, so I am just a git clone away from having my configuration deployed.
- halostatue 4y agoThere’s no good replacement for gvim / MacVim. I’ve tried all the GUIs that compile for the Mac. I can’t stand a single one of them. I can’t stand using vim / nvim on the terminal for most of my editing. Not sure why, but that’s my reasoning.
