Just tried today to switch from Vim to Neovim as my EDITOR when I work over SSH (I use VS Code otherwise, I know about its SSH capabilities but don’t use them to edit just one file).
Result: had to add a PPA on my Ubuntu server (not ideal but OK), most plugins require nvim 0.8+. Switched to the unstable PPA (because the stable PPA ships 0.7), turns out it doesn’t ship the latest release but instead a nightly dev build.
While editing Lua configs of Neovim, I tried to use ‘micro’ just for fun.
Result: my new EDITOR and GIT_EDITOR (that I previously set for +startinsert) are now set to ‘micro’. Alt+/ for commenting code, sane shortcuts, and code highlighting cover 90% of my needs.
