I sometimes wonder how new users of some of this tech get going with it... Example: I have been a vim user for geez, decades. I just read this article and thought "wow, I know I have heard of neo-vim, never used it, maybe I should change". So I searched the fine web for neo-vim sysadmin plugins. I came across this [0]. OK, wow, now I have the same thoughts as the author. How long would it take just to look at say the ColorScheme section or Utility section of that document?? It really makes me pause and think "too many choices lead to larger levels of inertia against change". I know I can just go and grab a neo-vim and look up a specific plugin, but it does make me wonder if we are overwhelming the tech/programming community with choices.

Users who have been using Vim for like 20 years and they have a configuration they like and see no reason to change. The other group wants all of the new hotness of Language Server Protocol, tree sitter, everything's asynchronous, there's a proper API and lots of new plugins that wouldn't be possible using Vimscript, for the most part.

nd they've brought lots of energy. There's also been quite an influx of VS Code users. Neovim is not an IDE, but it can support many IDE-like features via plugins written in Lua. There are several Neovim distributions, which you can install quickly and play around without committing to anything [1]. LunaVim, LazyVim and AstroVim are popular Neovim distributions. It's important to understand that your existing .vimrc will Just Work if you want to start with that. [1]: https://github.com/rockerBOO/awesome-neovim#preconfigured-co...
