How is a project with 30,000 GH stars a pre-alpha stage project?
- qudat 3y agoIt boggles the mind. Good for the team building this, lots of respect entering this crowded and race to the bottom pricing product. But I don’t get how this differs from vs code or why someone would be excited about it. I get the feeling people like trying new editors so they throw stars around for every ide project they come across. None of the features advertised beat neovim nor does it have the crazy plugin ecosystem.

- paradox460 3y agoYou can buy stars
