#neovim — Public Fediverse posts

The problem of fascists in Open Source Software projects has become so bad that some vim users are considering using emacs.

#Neovim #Fascism #OSS #OpenSourceSoftware

OMG. Feels like my love story with #Neovim has come to a brutal end.

(TL;DR: the Neovim website proudly quotes DHH, and Neovim’s leader is fine with it.)

#neovim jetzt also ein Problem?

I can’t understand why justinmk won’t remove a stupid endorsement from a white supremacist from the website of #neovim

I think I give #vim-classic another try or try again to do my general editing in #emacs (and not only for my org-files). I tried #helix but after my vacation it feels hard again.

On the current neovim problem, isn't that strange that no other maintainer appeared in public to comment on it?

Even in the Github org there are 25 people listed there - https://github.com/orgs/neovim/people .
Excluding justinmk (obv.) and TJ DeVries (he was the guest on the Omarchy announcement podcast - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWvH7BRgwL8, hanging with the dhh), there are still others that might say against this straight fascist endorsement and blatant embarrassment for the project of many many others.

Also, what is Neovim as an organization? I didn't find anything on the website, for example - who's who, who gets the money from the store, who is in charge in what reole, etc.

@neovim ?

#Neovim

You can't be neutral on a moving train #neovim

#neovim quotes #dhh on it's website: https://neovim.io/
Putting a quote from DHH on your website is endorsing a white supremacist and facist. I'm ready to wipe neovim from my devices. There are alternatives like #gram. What the actual fuck. They started adding #ai bs and now this?

fucking hell, I have to get a new text editor because #neovim is #fashware, I was using AstroNvim, but I guess I'm not anymore!

Ugh, the backwards syntax is currently just too martian for me. I may need an evil-#helix until someone makes a de-fashed #neovim.

So neovim went

Hey, you know who loved coming to this hotel every vacation?

Yes, you are not wrong.

None other than the famous Durchlaucht Heinrich Himmler. You love it even more now, don't you?

#neonazivim #neovim #DHH #Omarchy #naziBar @neovim

Are there any popular forks of neovim yet? (Preferably FOSS, but not on GitHub if possible)

#neovim

Cool things happening on #neovim bugtracker.

For fuck's sake

#neovim likes to keep quotes from nazis on their website, as it seems. A PR to remove #dhh quote has been denied.

Ah dang, guess it’s time to get a new daily driver CLI editor .. what are people using instead?

No emacs plz 😅

#neovim

A move to Vim (from Neovim) is looking rather attractive right now.

@listrophy @mawhrin
So you point out that the site has a quote from a nazi scumbag on the front page, make the removal of said quote easy and the response is "no thanks"!

Well fuck that.

Bye #neovim

Sooo.. #Neovim seems to have no problem in endorsing fascists :neocat_shocked:

https://github.com/neovim/neovim.github.io/issues/501

Looking for a replacement to Neovim since it became fascist/white supremacist friendly after featuring DHH and refusing to remove his quote/endorsement from their site?

Come try out EVi, a fork of VIm 9.1.0 made by me and a few other maintainers on Codeberg.

We don't have Lua stuff like Neovim but it's still a good alternative if you want a non-AI, pro-antifa, modern Vim experience.

Apparently this issue has been brought up about the Neovim website already and was deleted - tooting it here so that there is some record.
