what's good about neovim?
- NeoVim supports plugins written in modern languages without a Vim script shim. Vim script is utterly awful, and the sooner we can all pretend it never happened, the better the world will be.
- NeoVim can be configured and extended with
luaa language that many people actually like to use. - NeoVim is built client/server style, like VSCodium, so it can do the same remote/local mix and match tricks. Notably, VSCodium works nicely as a front end for editing files with NeoVim.
- NeoVim is somehow actually faster. vim was no slouch, but a full rewrite seems to have added some...ahem...vim.
