May I introduce you to Neovim? It has Lua. Learn Lua now.

[–] mdhughes@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I know Lua. Lua is why I won't use neovim.

It's not so Bad if you don't develope plugins. And vimscript is still there

[–] mdhughes@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Or I can use actual Vim (RIP Bram) and have new vimscript, and no Lua.

I love Lua. Can I do anything useful with it?

I don't know a language. Some sort of decision freeze. I've tried Lua, C#, Linux BASH, and Java. I went from learning C# to homelabbing proxmox. I have more success learning IT stuff.

Also I haven't used Vim or Emacs, but I used to rebind ALL of my keys in every game I played. I deeply love keybinding and using the keyboard rather than the mouse.
