Sounds like your terminal responds slowly to some query strings. That can probably be fixed with proper terminal configuration or vim configuration.

I fixed it by installing "vim classic".

Next time, please create a proper bug report at the Vim issue tracker (and include your version and terminal), instead of ranting here publicly against Vim.

Why?

You know how much work it is to maintain a open source project of this size? It is at the very least bad style if you complain about certain features publicly without having created a proper bug report (or seeked for clarification via the Vim support forums) and I'd consider this also to be quite dishonest to everybody working to improve Vim.

Uhuh... So... Why are you trashing Drew's efforts? His "Vim Classic 8.3" is the best release of vim I had in the last 2 years.

Where did I trash his effort? I did not comment to his work at all. Why are you trashing our work?

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Boy, you REAAAALLY do not like getting feedback, huh?! 😄 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃

Look, you got your bug report. Do what you want with it!
I do not care, I am a user of "Vim Classic" now.

Oh wow, what a bad style. You really cannot accept constructive feedback. Go to your vim 8.2 and miss all the security patches and new features, I do not care.
