Helix has segfaulted within minutes every time I've tried it. Despite being written in rust. It might be better now, but they've already lost me.

I switched away from VSC because I grew frustrated with the constant lag and terrible loading times.

The modern native stuff is either MacOS only or a proprietary newcomer, leaving me with no trust that I can stick with it long term.

And I'm a Nix user, so neovim doesn't randomly break for me, all versions are pinned. And if stuff does break when I chose to update my pinned versions it's trivial to rollback.
