Community splits around concrete technical choices (e.g. NeoVim, and use of Lua as a scripting language) SOMETIMES survive and thrive.

Forks that seem to exist for no clear reason other than disgruntled person(s) thumbing their nose at an upstream maintainer never do.

If this were meaningful, then there would be clear roadmap (at least high-level aspirations without dates) announced with the repo’s creation. Without that, this is little more than a gripe post on a Nim mailing list.
