Plus, I ran into plenty of crashes and weird error in some plugins - and performance wasn't always great.
The editing is fine, you can get used to buffer editing - it's everything else which is not polished and feels like a pile of half implemented features.
- doix 3y agoI don't really keep up with the state of the art of vim, so I don't know what the community has shifted to doing in plugins, but in vim you have to go out of your way to override the base keys in your plugin buffer. I guess that might be more popular now, I don't know. But the principle I'm talking about applies without any plugins at all. If just do :terminal it'll make a split, you can now switch between whatever you were doing and that terminal the same way you would switch between a regular split. None of the proper IDEs do that. I can't just look at what's on my screen and do "move focus to the thing below where I am". You need to memorize shortcuts for each bloody tab rather than them being context aware, and I hate it.
