I am a vscodium user who has begun to get increasingly frustrated over lack of commands to do some simple things.
So, as a longtime GNU/Linux user, who only knew basic commands to survive in vim, I decided to change my habits.
installed flavours of neovim(lunarvim, nvchad, and astronvim, in that order) and started tinerking. then switched to kick start.nvim.
on Android, I’m using plain neovim since there seems to be some missing lib for mason, the neovim package manager.
passing away of Bram Moolenaar has made me accelerate faster towards the day where my machine would be clean of any electron bloat.

I’m still very much a novice, and continue using codium in office, but I am committed to using neovim as I believe it’s truly a great editor(second to Emacs, of course).

above it is the text that reads, ‘learning about ci" in vim.’

      vim’s shortcuts like these are giving me 'gasms and regret(that I wasted so many collective hours using Ctrl + arrow/mouse over this). it’s a weird feeling.

      and yeah, you never learn vim. you just learn it enough.
