If you're curious about @neovim or are just dis-satisfied with your current #ide or #editor and want to supercharge your development workflow, you owe it to yourself to watch this video. Teej has done an incredible job with a rewrite of Neovim Kickstart - https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim and this video is the perfect intro and walkthrough.

I'm including the full fat Youtube link, with apologies to privacy advocates. The gent who made this is switching to streaming as a full time job and needs the income.

@feoh maybe maybe i'll finally try out neovim...

@Shenanigans Hey, there are plenty of great tools out there, if you're happy with what you're doing, by all means stick with it!

I was struggling with VSCode so I looked into it and it was one of the best tool related decisions I've ever made.

@feoh @neovim I used to treat neovim like a second class citizen before discovering kickstart, now I'm in disbelief how my other setups were ever acceptable

inb4 yeah the "setups" being mostly vscode

@tranzystorek_io @neovim Yeah it's a real productivity multiplier, and unlike some tools, the more you invest in learning the various combos, the more quickly you level up.

I got into it because I was struggling with an accessibility issue in VSCode (Their debugger couldn't fit on my laptop screen) and I was able to VERY quickly create a "just right" debugging environment with neovim.

@feoh I think the video link is missing?
@scott Wow do I feel stupid :) Fixed. Thank you!
@feoh @scott spit happens, no sweat

@feoh @neovim
I appreciate the approach of a kick start instead of a distribution and actually explaining how things work instead of just copy paste this monolith.

I'm not a full time neovim user but I'm definitely a comedy enjoyer and got a chuckle out of:
"if you're not familiar with Mason: for my soy latte loving, coffee shop enjoying viewers it's basically like `brew install`... And for my single viewers it's kinda like pacman."

@shom @neovim Yeah Teej is a funny guy. Funny and crazy bright are my kind of people :)

I wish here were on fedi honestly. I guess there are just folks who love Xitter and will stay there until the heat death of the sun. I don't get it but 🀷

@feoh @neovim
Making a living online is hard so I get why people think they need to be where the audience is and that is logistically/fiscally true for YouTube.
But posting a link on Twitter that directs people to video on YouTube and discussion on fedi might be path forward for some.
