I like Zed as a concept. Rapid af, vim bindings built in, lean stuff.
But I just can't go back to vim after enjoying helix bindings. They're too good.

d for delete.
d_to skip putting it in the copy register! Helps performance if you're doing large global deletions. -
Having bunch of plugins built-in is not any better than having a bunch of plugins
Security-wise, yeah? IIRC Microsoft is very nonchalant with checking that there's nothing malicious in the plugins on their marketplace.
-
I can’t remember the last time I had to install a plugin for any JetBrains IDE. You thinking of Visual Studio Code?!
How is that relevant to “That’s on you for using Java”?

A lot of them are dependencies of other plugins.
Stuff like icons support, and every little feature. Neovim is extremely minimalist to start, so you need plugins just to get something as simple as a scrollbar lol
Things like git status of files and file lines, all your LSPs, syntax highlighting (for each language you work with), file explorer, you name it, there's a lot.
But what's nice about nvim is for any of these given features, there's numerous options to pick from. Theres probably a dozen options to choose from for what kind of scrollbar you want in your editor, as an example.
So you end up with a huge amount of plugins in the end, for all your custom stuff you have configured.
You have to setup yourself (though theres a lot of very solid copy pasteable recipes for each feature):
- Scrollbar
- Tabs(if you want em)
- bookmarking
- every LSP
- treesitter
- navigation (possibly multiple of them, I use both a file tree, telescope, and harpoon)
- file history stuff
- git integrations, including integrating it with the numerous other plugins you use (many of them can integrate with git for stuff like status icons)
- Code commenting/uncommenting
- Code comment tags (IE TODO/BUG/HACK/etc)
- your package manager is also a package (I like lazy for wicked fast open speeds, neovim opens in under 1s for me)
- hotkey management (I like to use
which-key) - prose plugins (lots of great options here too, I use nvim for more than just coding!)
- neorg, so I can use nvim for taking notes, scheduling stuff, etc too
- debugger via
nvim-dap - debugger UI via
nvim-dap-ui - lualine, which is a popular statusline plugin people like to have at the bottom of their IDE for general file info
new-file-templatewhich lets me create templates for new files by extension (IE when I make a.csfile and start editting it, I can pick from numerous templates I've made to start from, same for .ts, .lua, etc etc)- git conflict, which can detect and work with detected git merge conflict sections in any type of file and give me hotkeys to do stuff like pick A / B / Both / Neither, that sorta stuff
The list goes on and on haha
I'm not judging (that much) but you can do pretty well with just telescope, undo-tree and the LSP stuff, no? Debuggers can make it very bloated, at that point I'd just fire up a real IDE just for debugging and get back to Vim to program

Lol wow, intelliJ? Shit's slow as fuck
I have 60ish plugins for VS Code and IntelliJ is still slower / sluggish.
-
You guys use editors? Real programmers only need a mechanical hard drive, a magnetized needle and a steady hand.
You're allowed to hand wire breadboards with transistors and switches and capacitors and LEDs.... You're allowed to get shit done

You can just buy them for one year and keep using the perpetual fallback license. Also, they can fuck right off with their planet incinerating automatic plagiarism chat bots.
That’s pretty awesome, I didn’t know they had that. Seems like the sort of thing that should be like an EU enforced license structure. If anything it would make Adobe pucker their buttholes considering their asinine and predatory pricing strategy.

VSCode is just Emacs with a weirder Lisp. (/s)
(You can tear my Emacs from my cold dead hands)
No need. Looking at the age of users of emacs vs others we'll live a long time

Autocad costs that much because Autodesk behaves anti-competitively and has locked firms into their proprietary tooling / file formats / training and the firms have no choice but to keep paying them.
Their predatory behaviour towards the engineering industry is literally why I taught myself programming and switched to software development.
They are a prime example of why you shouldn't build your company around closed source proprietary software, but open source software that can be forked or self hosted in a worst case scenario.
Dam. Finally someone else who did something similar. I also changed my focus into more GIS and programming oriented work because of AutoCAD being what it is. I like working on open source software because I don't suddenly lose all my work because I ran out of license or left my job.

Did you not disable the unneeded plugins on a project? I wouldn't turn on the rust plugins for a js project if the codebase doesn't have it

LunarVim is the lazy way forwards

If your work can’t afford less than $20/seat/month for business-critical software, I’d start looking for a new job because your paychecks are about to dry up, anyway.
Is it business critical if it can be done elsewhere for cheaper/free?

Helix is bae, the best of both worlds, of both Emacs and Vim.
Indeed. The only issue I have with Helix is the TOML format of the config files. It's kind of clunky, especially in the languages file. It would be cool if you could be a little less verbose in there. Like YAML or something, and do deeper nesting in a cleaner way, and references for deduplication of settings that are identical, like for JavaScript and TypeScript.

To each their own I guess.
I imagine some people consider the bloat to be that extra IDE you have to have laying around just in case you want to debug something. -

Makes more sense now I guess.
Tabs though? Neovim already has tabs support out of the box, right?

I‘ll take the plugin installing over fucking around with pycharm jars to get it to actually eat dependencies any day. I am amazed about the bullshit the Intellij fanboys are willing to put up with, I would rather do everything in vi.

Yes, I’d rather have 35 different IDEs for every task I need to do. Much better than One To Rule Them All.
You mean one to struggle to rule them all?
