How many people still use "classic" Vim aka Vim aka NOT-nvim?

I get the impression that the Elixir community at large is using nvim, though it occurred to me that I don’t actually know this so I thought I would ask here to get some sort of better idea. I’m thinking of offering to take over as maintainer of elixir.vim so it’s useful info for me—though I still haven’t decided if learning that lots of people still use Vim means I’d want to or not want to do this :upside_down_face:

I’m also on a bit of a Vim config kick right now (happens about once per year) and fixing some long-standing grievances I’ve had with elixir.vim, so let me know if there is anything you’d like me to look at. I’d even be up for pairing if anyone is into that.

Just to provide a data point: I’m all in on Neovim. I’m not even sure when I removed elixir.vim, but it’s not in my list of plugins anymore and everything is working great. :person_shrugging:

So that is without a doubt been the biggest thorn in my side and what I’ve been working on. I have a draft PR open and is mostly there but I want to use keep using it for a few days. It would be great if you could try it out and give me feedback!

Comments in this thread may also be worth a look : Which code editor or IDE do you use? (Poll) (2022 Edition) :023:

If anyone’s on a Mac you might want to check out MacVim, it can look quite nice with some tweaks (scroll to bottom of this blog post for details, and this old post might also be of interest).
