To be honest, at most hackathons I get laughed at because I use a "bloated" Visual Studio....and then they show me there vim/emacs editor containing like a thousand plugins - like this isn't bloated. And in the end they look like Visual Studio. The look I get when I tell them that Visual Studio and most other IDEs have a Vim Plugin is also amusing. Finally I say that emacs is better than vim and watch how they flame each other.... |

Why do you assume that the end result of adding "a thousand plugins" to VIm is bloat, or even becoming as bloated as Visual Studio? Have you ever compared the result in terms of memory footprint and responsiveness? I mean, vim packed with "a thousand plugins" can be easily used on a low end/ealry 2010's netbook while a vanilla installation of MSVS requires a beefy workstation just to run.
