It's kind of useless question. I tried C++ for two days with Vi, and I think this motherfucking language is fucking complicated than C. I wanted syntax highlighting for the time in 93 years.

Why do you people do this to yourselves. Just use vscode like a normal person 99% of the time, vi is for when you need to edit files on something you can only access via ssh.

why would you use vi/vim over neovim?
>>
>>108855191
I used neovim before, But I just don't wanna learn lua to edit my editor.
>>
>>108855191
Sometimes you just want to edit some text and you don’t need an entire stack of plugins to recreate VS Code to do that.

Use whatever you feel like.
>>
>>108855191
neovim, even without plugins, is more complicated to configure, and changes more often.
personally i dont like lua compared to the simplicity of my single vimrc file.
i use LSPs but not AI, which i use opencode for.
i dont manage my files in my editor. in fact i have netrw disabled, so it just goes to a blank file if you open a directory
>>
>>108855172
Why do this to yourself? Just use emacs 99% of the time and visual studio for debugging and profiling.
>>
>>108855070
>Should I have to use Vim
no, you should use neovim instead
>>
>>108855208
>learn lua
bro its basically json syntax, there isnt any learning required
>>
>>108855070
this doesn't make you a le epic haxxor btw, no one cares that you use vi and no one cares that you write C or C++. you come off as a larper. just thought i'd let you know

and yes i use vim as well
>>
>>108855729
>and yes i use vim as well
I use Vim BTW
>>
>>108855771
I use vim bindings inside emacs and neovim btw
>>
>>108855070
There’s also Helix, but I second the “just use VS Code” comments
Neovim has LSP support in a plugin probably so that should help you even more than mere syntax highlighting
>>
Just use vscode normies are so tiresome. I didn't go into this profession to use some half-assed Microsoft WebView react slop of an editor that constantly spies on me. Why do people who ue vscode want to suck the last bits of joy others experience about programming by bullying them to use this corposlop?
>>
>>108855070
use dev c++
>>108856210
vim is absurdly backwards, there is plenty of decent ides for c++, visual code is just the most popular
>>
>>108856495
I was on vim up until a few months ago when I finally switched to neovim. It's fine, it writes code and gets out of your way. If you can't live without muh lsp and my IDE features then it's your problem. Code is just letters you need to type.
>>
>>108855070
Who is forcing you to use a particular editor again?
>>
>>108856754
His impression that somehow he needs the approval of random NEETs on a korean basket weaving forum.

Protip: don't take advice from anyone here. Everybody here is deranged in a different way.
>>
>>108855208
just vibecode your config bro
>>
>>108855070
>have to
You can use Nano if you're not a whiny bitch.
>>
>>108855191
Why use mainframe meme editors in general?
>>
>>108856753
>Code is just letters

ye, and IDE is just a software you need to install, i used neovim up until a few months ago when i finally switched to visualstudio.
>>
>>108855172
Time waster perhaps. Do you often see people talking about any other editors/IDEs? No, only about meme time wasters.
>>

>Protip: don't take advice from anyone here. Everybody here is deranged in a different way
Your advice is invalid then.
>>
Your choice of editor and language are objectively wrong. There is only one valid systems language in 2026, which is Rust. There is only one valid modal terminal editor in 2026, which is Helix (written in Rust). There is only one valid GUI editor in 2026, which is Zed (written in Rust). Time to leave the stone age, chuddy.

>>108855070
how do you deal with the compiiler errors anon?
C was okay but what the hell is going on in C++ when your whole screen gives you some bullshit.
>>
>>108857244
You don't know what a mainframe is.
>>
>>108857684
If you reject his advice, you are following his advice.
>>
>>108858647
i would advise that you kill yourself
>>
>>108858477
The main reason is that. Stack of error messages was totally filling up my poor pussy
>>
>>108859244
It's really quite rediculous
>>
>>108857196
Nano or nvim are way better for me

Pycharm is heavy on the ram and vscode constantly breaks my configurations

But I'm not a fag if I had a decent specs I'd run a normal compiler unlike these hipsters

I think there's this one and the same troon here in every thread on /g/ pushing Rust in threads that are not about Rust at all. I bet it's the same person who posted the ugliest Rust code possible here once and then tried to convince everyone it was beautiful.
>>
>>108858066
lost me at Zed.
it's vibecoded garbage.
>>
>>108855172
A proper nvim config will be a LOT nicer to use than vscode.

You started programming in 1933?
>>
>>108855172
you can use neovim to augment vscode

Well, if you want to use Vim, use Vim
And if you want to use Vi, use Vi
There's a million editors to try
You know that there are

You can do what you want
The opportunity's on
And if you can find a new way
You can do it today
You can make it all true
And you can make 'u' undo
you see ah ah ah
its easy ah ah ah
You only need to know
