    In what way is it less effort than vim? I’ve tried helix a little bit and it didn’t seem that different.

      For me it’s less effort because everything that I want just works out of the box. The totally of my configuration is under 10 lines. I don’t want to have to mess with nested config files each dozens to hundred of lines long most of which I will not understand just to code.

      Also helix is different in that it uses the selection then action workflow. Vim is action then selection which is less nice for me.

      In helix if I want to delete a function I would do: ESC -> space -> f -> d

      Which means: Normal mode then lsp menu then next function then delete.

      In vim I would have to delete then select what to delete which I don’t like.

      I’m hoping it’ll be less effort setting it up than vim/neovim. Both need a bunch of plugins to be worth using. I got some preconfigured neovim config (doomvim or something) and while it’s better, a bunch of stuff just doesn’t work.
