    I hate how easy VSCode is to use. I want to learn NeoVIM, but the fact that VSCode just kinda works with whatever you throw at it with minimal configuration makes finding the energy to switch hard.

    I don’t want to spend weeks configuring my editor…

      Any editor can save your files, but only Emacs can save your soul.

          (defun get-soul () 
          "Return soul"
            (interactive)
            (with-current-buffer "soul"

        That’s what I use outside work lol, Fedora Workstation and VSCodium Insiders

        It’s still just VSCode though, but without all the Microsoft telemetry

      Don’t take it too seriously it’s a fine editor.

      Even though I use nvim I wouldn’t really recommend it because yeah there’s setup time and some things are a little rough around the edges.

        I’m nano and VSCode for most things, but I have started using micro for stuff where I don’t want to leave the terminal and it’s pretty decent

      If you ever want a simple neovim config I’d happily give you something to start with for your use case

      The real difficulty comes in learning the keybinds and built in features lol

      Use astronvim, it’s super easy to use right out of the box and is almost feature complete to vscode without any plugins.

      There are configuration bundles that do a lot of the heavy lifting for you. Kickstart is the one I liked most but it’s one of the lighter ones so you’ll still have some setup to do. Check out Lazyvim if you want something that’s heavier but comes with a lot of (opinionated) configuration already handled.

      I was going to chime in with “Use Emacs” but then I realized I don’t actually use Emacs, I use Emacs as a boot-loader to magit /hj

      But yeah, if you’re going to move away from VSCode, just drop into Emacs because it’s going to be the same time-commitment essentially.

        I’m honestly probably not going to until I absolutely need to. I tend to do a lot of large changes that I break out into smaller commits after a session and the workflow in Codium/VSCode for that is really slick. Just pop open the diff and stage/revert ranges of code with the mouse.

        Also reverting blocks is easy when you just click a “revert block” button that lives between the diffs. I love using keyboard, but when I’m reviewing code I prefer to do it with a mouse.
