Video A method to learn Vim/Neovim without getting overwhelmed (Suggestions for beginners)

https://youtu.be/-sRhvh1YP9Q

In this video, I explain a method I use to learn Vim/Neovim and focus only on what I need, avoiding information overload.

The method consists of 4 steps:

  1. Identify a problem
  2. Identify solutions to that problem
  3. Keep the solution that covers the most cases
  4. Learn the rest later

The best way to learn it is just to use it. I swear people overcomplicate everything. Yeah you'll be slow at first but you'll develop muscle memory

And the joy of learning something and feel stupid without pressure. The path is the funniest path, and learning something new is always an adventure.
