I would recommend against heavy-handed plugins, it's the reason I burned out on nvim and fled to helix. The thing about a breaking change in a plugin (like, oh, I don't know nvim-treesitter - likely the most installed plugin) is that you find out when you are about to do work/be productive. Keep nvim as minimal as possible IMO.

This guy gets it. I am also firmly in the vanilla config camp. Neovim is very usable out of the box. Once you are invested in the interface (modal editing) then look to get 'fancy'. I think the big config approach just tries to make the editor an IDE. You don't most of that to try it out. Start simple.
