More and more I feel like I should wean myself off NERDTree and back onto netrw like a grown-up. It would reduce the number of plugins I use to zero, and that would be an accomplishment.

I'm curious what the accomplishment would be?

I use a bunch of plugins, they help me be more productive...

The accomplishment is training myself to run as close to default as possible. I've gotten very accustomed to using NERDTree, for example, but that's because I never really took the time to learn to use netrw correctly. I seek to correct that now.

To misappropriate a Dawkins quote, I'm simply going one further, to zero.

Do it. netrw has a lot more features than NERDTree and comes as default.

Yay, yet another editor flamebait post. Wonderful.

TL;DR version: "I am trying to say that you can’t be wrong if you are getting your job done" - IOW, don't bother.

VIM FTW...

Or just

FTV (For the Vim)

Vim = Win!
