Neovim

Neovim is a modal text editor forked off of Vim in 2014. Being modal means that you do not simply type text on screen, but the behavior and functionality of the editor changes entirely depending on the mode.

The most common and most used mode, the "normal mode" for Neovim is to essentially turn your keyboard in to hotkeys with which you can navigate and manipulate text. Several modes exist, but two other most common ones are "insert mode" where you type in text directly as if it was a traditional text editor, and "visual mode" where you select text.

Neovim seeks to enable further community participation in its development and to make drastic changes without turning it in to something that is "not Vim". Neovim also seeks to enable embedding the editor within GUI applications.

Neovim v0.9.2 is now available

This is the first Neovim release since Bram Moolenaar passed away and the archival/deprecation of both null-ls.nvim and packer.nvim.

Is anyone running into any issues with this release (particularly if you use null-ls or packer)? How are the Neovim distros (eg - NvChad, AstroNvim, LazyVim, LunarVim, etc.) performing after the update?

Considering null-ls still works on nightly, it should be fine.

@skipperwannabe

Does "still works" mean null-ls works just as well today on Neovim v0.9.2 (and/or latest nightly) as it did on Neovim v0.9.1 when the null-ls archival announcement was made about two months ago or that it "still works" as long as you can work around issues stemming from a change(s) to Neovim since the null-ls archival announcement?

Since Neovim v0.9.2 "is a maintenance release, focused on bug fixes and performance improvements", I assume its the former.

For me, it works as well on nightly without any modifications as it did when the archival announcement was made. But I only use formatters and one or two linters. So can't confirm for other features.

That said, I am thinking about changing to conform.nivm for formatting.
