Wait, so because vim is allowing code written with AI we are switching to a random fork? The mental gymnastics here are insane once again. Is someone assuming that the vim maintainers are gonna do agentic requests? How is this project gonna handle upstream changes into their own main? Cherry-picking only confirmed human-only commits?

What mental gymnastics? I’ve already installed EVi on my dev VM, seems to work fine. Problem solved, as far as I’m concerned, and I’m glad to lend my public voice in support of a slop-free fork.

slop-free fork

Based on what, exactly? I work with real people who write very sloppy code. If you’re trying to make a statement by switching away from vim, why not go to emacs, nano, or sublime?

The mental gymnastics is trusting a completely unknown person more than an LLM. LLMs are about as trustworthy and competent as the average person. In my book, that puts them far below reputable developers (like Moolenaar), but far above complete randos like the EVi dev. At least the LLM is somewhat predictable, but people can be crazy.

Wow, that’s quite an accusation against the lead maintainer of EVi, and furthermore you seem to be in the wrong forum because this one is called Fuck AI. So last I checked it’s perfectly alright to say fuck AI and also fuck the LLMs you’ve placed such unwarranted confidence in.

“maintainer” lol hold on lemme fork vim so I can become a maintainer as well.
