As a 20+ year vim user, I love seeing new configs come out still.

Although I won't be using Astro because I like my current setup, I really enjoy looking through other people's configs.

You can't use this with Vim anyway, it's for Neovim.

Edit: why the downvotes? This is a Lua based neovim setup that can't be used with vim.

I think to many neovim users, the term is absolutely synonymous. I don’t know anyone that prefers the feature set of vim to neovim at this point. The benefit of vim/vi is that you will probably have it on most unix systems by default.

This comment will probably be a bat signal for vim users though.

Should definitely not be synonymous, it just confuses people.

Hah, I agree it's confusing. And it's funny you mention it, because even though I said vim, I use neonvim.

Unfortunately words evolve over time whether we like it or not.

For example how in many contexts "crypto" now refers to cryptocurrencies instead of cryptography.
