My main editor for the past few years has been vscode, but I've dabbled in emacs (Doom), neovimm and helix. I keep coming back to vscode due to the plugin ecosystem and ease of setup. But sometimes I watch long-term vim users writing code and I'm amazed at their efficiency.
But maintaining an up-to-date (n)vim setup seems like a huge time sink. In my experience, plugins are constantly deprecated and forked, or have breaking changes that need to be debugged. Part of this is just the open source dilemma.
For those of you who use vim as their primary editor, or have switched to/from vscode, do you believe all the extra effort required for vim is worth it?
