Neovim is awesome
In a moment of weakness I configured the Visual Studio to use Vim as input method and now I don't know how to change it back.
I'm sad to say I fell for this trap as well! Wanted to keep using vim, but I'm too old to put so much effort in maintaining my tools, when I have a self-cleaning swissknife .. just... right.. there.
Out of curiosity, I wondered what the original meme was. Found them and thought I’d share them:
Here’s the original: https://i.imgur.com/kERuZkW.jpg
And here’s the one that this is based off (slightly different): https://i.imgur.com/HFwENsd.png
BTW, just in case you didn't know, you can put images directly in your comment with this:
I didn’t know that, will use in the future. Thanks!
They give us their ‘cures’ (neovim) while they suppress our medicine (emacs)
Whewf I’m boutta out myself or something, but …
after 15 years of vim, writing (and contributing to) a host of plugins, even running custom builds with my own patches …
I basically never boot up Actual Vim anymore?? I’ve basically entirely switched to VScode + VSCodeVim. embarrassing as fuck, in some ways, but jesus christ it’s just too goddamn good.
The neovim integration, even, was fantastic. (Although I don’t use it right now, for “VSCode Remote reasons,” lol.)
I'm thinking of switching from VSC to VIM because VSC is too hungry for ressources.
I avoid to open some monorepo projects because it takes too much time and I use the Github explorer to navigate in the project.
What on earth size of monorepo is that!? iirc, we’ve got ~1Mloc of OCaml, probably another two or three times that in assorted generated code, specs, config, infra, and other languages; and my VScode-Remote definitely boots up as fast as the network connection can stand up.
Definitely faster than I can think of the first thing I want to do … ¯_(ツ)_/¯
That said, I should own up to having had an absurdly overcomplicated vim config, tons of plugins, a decade n change of customizations and patches and shit. Maybe I’ve just always had a high tolerance for a slow boot. hahaha
It's a monorepo for around 30 micro frontend projects (Vue.js / Angular / Svelte mostly) + some libraries packages.
I don't know what is the number of LoC but it's medium sized frontend projects (we are ~100 developpers on this projects)
.. the cleaning paste?
My entire first year as a network student was a Bernie meme: "i am once again asking, how do i exit vim?"
I litterally LOL'd! :D
