veer66Vim is great, but it may not be the minimal text editor you were inspired to use from '80s memes.

Nikolay Robotoev 🥞🎙️Vim mode in editors is like non-alcoholic beer - not a real thing.

Adam KatzIt's not often that I deploy a quick change to my <code>~/.vimrc</code> and it so thoroughly improves my life, but setting <code><Shift>+<Tab></code> to correct the most recent misspelled word has done exactly that, right up there with when I learned about <code><Ctrl>+p</code> and <code><Ctrl>+n</code> in insert mode. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#vim</a> <pre><code>" Correct the closest misspelled word (with spellcheck off, the current word) " assuming the #1 option is the best (`2<S-Tab>` in normal mode uses #2, etc.) if exists('&spell') function!

TobyI’m moving back to Vim. Unsurprised to have forgotten almost all muscle memory.I’m starting my .vimrc from scratch because frankly the one I had was a bit of a Frankenstein’s monster. I’m also manually handling plugins instead of going via a toolkit.Trying to ease into it slowly and deliberately. :wq <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Vim</a>

Jay 🆘I think I have to switch <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Vim</a> completion plugins soon. Choosing between nvim-cmp and vimcomplete, probably gonna go with nvim-cmp. This is gonna be like a whole Saturday afternoon project.
