> (I finally rewrote my entire config, and lazy is vastly better than vim-plug. I should've done so sooner.) What's better about it? I ask because I've been using `Plug` since I switched from pathogen (what feels like) an eternity ago and I don't really know any reason to switch because it just sort of works...? Every few years or whatever I'll overhaul the config (not a choice but it just sort of happens) and I'm curious whether switching plugin management plugin has a point. |

- You can specify plugins dependencies, instead of having everything in a big list.
- You can separate each plugin setup/configuration into separate files.
- It tracks plugin versions in a lock file that you can commit into git. Makes it easy to identify plugins that breaks and lets you pin it to a known good version.
- Nicer UI to install and update plugins, including a git log for each plugin.
- Lazy loading of plugins. Not critical, but it does make a difference if you have a few slow plugins that you need occasionally or just a lot of plugins.
- Profile plugin startup times in a nice way.
