The death of Bram Moolenaar, Vim founder and benevolent dictator for life (BDFL), in 2023 sent a shock through the community, and raised concern about the future of the project. At VimConf 2024 in November, current Vim maintainer Christian Brabandt delivered a keynote on “the new Vim project" that detailed how the community has reorganized itself to continue maintaining Vim and what the future looks like.
I was using Vim only and didn’t want switch to Neovim. Then someday, after having performance problems in Vim, I gave Neovim a shot and switch to it. Shortly after the world was in shock when we knew Bram died. It was the day when I switched to Neovim. I feel like responsible for this.
If you have a Facebook, X or Amazon account, I hope you can find it in your heart to switch to one of their competitors. It’s worth a try.
Wish I had.
