I have also switched to nvim, but every release I consider moving back.

Honestly a lot of this is that I hate Lua. With so much of the infrastructure moving in that direction it's basically unavoidable. XDG support was honestly one of the things holding me back; I'm glad that this is finally fixed.

XDG was added somewhat quietly almost two years ago now. It was announced on www.vim.org but that was it as far as I know. They don't keep news that far back but here's the commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/c9df1fb35

Lua is one of those languages, where the more I code in it, the more I dislike it. It always trips me up. Just too used to modern type safety, ergonomics and zero-indexing.
