@AndrewRadev Yes: complete, unwavering commitment to backwards compatibility has long been one of the things I’ve most appreciated about Vim, too. It’s one of the main (legitimate) reasons I’m still not on Neovim.

Vim's lead maintainer has fully lost his goddamn mind -
Vim's lead maintainer has fully lost his goddamn mind@AndrewRadev I wasn’t aware of either of those before, but even so, this feels qualitatively different.
I had seen a couple of mentions of Claude being found in the GitHub repo over the past few days, but I didn’t expect *this*.
I’ve never followed Vim’s development that closely but from what I did see of it under Bram I would have described his approach with words like “careful” and “cautious”. I’ve been presuming the new maintainers would continue that legacy. This… doesn’t look like that.
