Honestly... everybody should try out neovim for at least a week. I mean like... fully commit to it.

It's just amazing how fast and light on resource usage it is, compared to vscode.

For reference: I just opened qmk_firmware which has a shit load of clang code and files. Guess what, neovim doesn't even break a sweat, while vscode almost burns my CPU.

If you are open to GUI editors, have you tried neovim frontends, like neovide ?

Yeah I liked it a lot too. Fun with the graphical effects and felt smoother than neovim in terminal for me.
