Helix and Vim/NeoVim? Muscle memory is overrated anyways.

He installed Helix last year and will try it out soon. Any day now…

He’ll try it right after he’s done tweaking his NeoVim config so he can finally start doing some meaningful work in it.

This is the equivalent of a woodworker building jigs and other tools with their thousands-of-dollars of equipment.

Yeah, the feeling of “just needing that one perfect tool before I can do this” seems terribly common and I feel like it’s being enabled quite a bit in our society. If I just had the right editor/keyboard/notepad/fountain pen/jig etc, then I’ll be able to work on this other thing…

Oh god. That is so me. Always with the “if only” mentality. If only ________ then I could do ________.

And of course, it never gets done. 😅
