There's some strong views about ThePrimeagen in this thread. Just want to share my experience. I've spent tonnes of time configuring Vim, Neovim etc. Its ... a ... mess.

I love both editors and for the love of me, I don't know why configuring them is soooo hard and brittle.

ThePrimeagen videos on Vim/Neovim is by far information dense videos. It took me sometime to ignore his style of presentation and just focus on content. However, the value I got out of watching his videos is undeniable. Knowing his background a bit and how he battled addiction gave me some context. (Sorry can't find that video on his channel now)

Continuing on this topic of Vim/Neovim ...

Leeren Chen (https://www.youtube.com/@leeren_) is pure genius on the topic of configuring Vim. I've never seen another person like him on Youtube, who uses Vimscript to configure Vim to make it work like an IDE (almost).

TJ Devries (https://www.youtube.com/@teej_dv) videos on Neovim are awesome too (He's core dev of Neovim). But there's lot of gimmicks in his video and it can put people off. His videos with @BashBunni is very approachable in terms of learning about and configuring Neovim.
