#neovim — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #neovim, aggregated by home.social.

  1. How to use multiple Cursors, merged into Neovim nightly, scheduled for release in Neovim 0.13 #Neovim blog.olimorris.com/2026/09/02/

  2. Finally got around to setting up #neovim to render man pages. It’s trivial to get the default going, but if you’ve got the keyboard shortcuts for less burned into your mind and demand a non-cluttered view, some tweaks are required. I've captured my configs. Tested in #FreeBSD, #AlpineLinux, #macOS, and #Debian.

  4. #neovim Development News

    The 0.12 version updates `:delmarks` command to trigger the `MarkSet` event (with `line` and `col` set to 0).

    PR:
    - github.com/neovim/neovi...

    feat(events): trigger MarkSet ...

  5. Note to self: Do NOT allow LazyVim to install a shitload of breaking changes when the kids have school tomorrow, even if you're not really intending to work tonight.

  6. What a world we live in! I noticed a post by @bremner linking to neovim fighting against removing a DHH quote. Given that DHH actively associates himself with white supremacy and ethnic cleansing, choosing to associate your project with him is quite a choice.

    Well. Reading to the end of the thread, the maintainer decided to go out with a bang. I'm not sure this is any better a look than fighting for the DHH quote in the first place, but here we are.

    Here's the link to the issue:

    github.com/neovim/neovim.githu

    Here's the patch that was finally accepted:

    github.com/neovim/neovim.githu

    And here's a link to something to use instead of Neovim:

  7. Lost in a large codebase? 🔎

    I built tgrep.nvim to bring Microsoft’s tgrep search into Neovim, with the fff-plus picker.

    • Search as you type
    • Preview matches before opening
    • Jump into splits or tabs
    • Send matches to quickfix
    • Use an index, with filesystem fallback

    Try :Tgrep in your project. I’d love to hear what would make it fit your workflow.

  8. #neovim Development News

    The 0.12 version adds `ZR` default mapping to restart Neovim. This compliments already present `ZZ` and `ZQ` to close the window.

  9. Q: Where is the code? What you've been doing whole day?
    A: Figuring out why kewords are red instead gruvbox aqua blue in my #neovim
    Q: Oh I see, carry on!

    vim.hl.priorities.semantics_tokens = 95

    You can take my treesitter syntax highlighting from my cold, dead hands.

  10. ¿Por qué me tengo que enterar accidentalmente que si en #neovim pulsas la tecla * cuando el cursor está sobre una palabra, empezarás automáticamente una búsqueda de esa palabra hacia adelante (te llevará a la siguiente ocurrencia y además se iluminarán las ocurrencias), y que si pulsas # hará lo mismo pero hacia atrás?

    Con una g delante (o sea, g* y g#) permite buscar en cualquier parte de la palabra, sin una g delante sólo busca palabras completas.

    Y yo aquí gastando la tecla / 😓

  11. #neovim Development News The 0.12 version updates `gf` and `<cfile>` to work with `file://` URI scheme. PR: - github.com/neovim/neovi...

    fix(gf): handle local `file:` ...

  12. For those disappointed by the recent #Neovim goings-on and looking for an alternative, you can do worse than switch to Doom #Emacs. Great OOTB user experience, vi key bindings enabled by default and they have a clear policy on LLM contributions (see github.com/doomemacs/core)

  13. has been a highly problematic person in the open for decades now. Here's a blogpost about him being a douchebag in the 00s years and that was WAY BEFORE he got political (as far as I can tell). I don't get why so many people still give him a platform...

  14. CW: Awful tech leaders being awful

    Watching people deal with the #neovim DHH scandal by moving to emacs, and I'm like "you do know that RMS is personally involved with GNU emacs, and he's a rape apologist?" (see stallman-report.org/, I don't want to argue)

    Like, we all need to draw our own lines in a way that lets us look ourselves in the mirror, and if that means using emacs I'm not going to tell you you're wrong. But from a "is this project led by someone who's values I share" perspective, I don't feel any better about emacs than I do about neovim right now.

  15. So after the (a?) #neovim maintainer rather loudly announced they're cool with fascism, I've started putting a toe in the #HelixEditor waters. Digging it so far, and got my #golang setup all working nicely, but vimotion is completely burned into my brain after ~20 years. Learning to navigate quickly is going to take a little while.

    I do love how you can jump to a two-letter marker on screen, which reminds me of how some speech-based VSCode plugins work that I was experimenting with a couple of years ago.

  16. @brennan enjoyed your piece but disappointed 😕 that michael b. paulson made the drewdevault.com/weird-guys/ list. had admired his overcoming of substance addiction to vim expert journey (although maybe, in reality, it was just the #neovim dhh trail). hope he can overcome these associations too. #vim

  17. @pmakholm This was lie decades ago. Now is much better editor than or . Not even comparable. Vim has ~10% of Emacs features

  18. Bon bah ça a fini par se résoudre (un peu dans le sang, mais quand même) cette histoire de DHH sur neovim.io.

  20. ¡Mierda!

    Entre #vifm y #yazi

    Excelentes administradores de archivos para la terminal, pero con filosofías distintas. La elección, depende de tu flujo de trabajo:

    Vifm:

    - Eres un usuario avanzado de Vim/Neovim y quieres atajos exactos.
    - Necesitas un diseño de panel doble.
    - Prefieres una interfaz sencilla y orientada puramente al teclado sin florituras visuales.

    Yazi:

    - Quieres una vista previa de imágenes, PDF y vídeos directamente en la terminal.
    - Buscas la máxima velocidad gracias a su motor basado en Rust.
    - Te gustan las interfaces modernas, renderizado asíncrono y soporte para múltiples pestañas.

    Pues los dos, porque se puede... o ninguno, porque prefieres GUI, todo es valido al final.
