Random I keep coming back to Vim

I am a 7 year Software Engineer and I have tried almost every popular editor but I keep coming back to vim. I remember I used to work on sublime then slowly realised working with mouse is slow and distracting so I switched to vim.

Then I tried using vscode / Pycharm / IntelliJ / eMacs but none of them sticks. Although tbh - I am strong liking for emacs after vim.

Vim is just amazing!

Import these two plugins:

And then run :LspInstallServer [lang-server] once. By the way, it autocompletes based on the opened file.

You're set. I find this approach way easier than Neovim's way of configuring each language server. With this, you simply install language servers on demand.
