You're assuming I have a hyper-customized vim setup. Which I absolutely don't, I thought it was implied from my question that I am the opposite. I try to keep my setup as vanilla as possible because the main reason I enjoy vim is its reliability.
And of course when I say reliability, I don't just mean from crashing. I mean from unnecessary work maintaining plugins and their infrastructure.
- dmix 4y agoIn that case it would 100% make it less stable. I respect the vanilla Vim folks but I could never do that. Just curious, do you also keep bash/zsh vanilla as possible? I hate sshing into servers without my rc, which is a downside. But I also don't do much sysadmin stuff so it's not a very common issue.
- INTPenis 4y agoI use bash, and yes it's pretty vanilla. I have a custom PS1 line with some added info but no colors, no multiple lines like a lot of people do. I've been using Linux (or Unix) for 25 years and it works well for me. I can work in large projects with many files and directories. I never even heard of people automatically transferring their RC files to remote servers. That sounds quite convenient to be fair.
- dmix 4y agoThat's cool. I'll always respect the diehards who value their longer term priorities over short term benefit.
