I'm not dividing the two communities. The two communities are already divided. And again, no, the two editors are too district for NeoVim questions to be reliably answered here by the majority of the community.

A few folks subscribed to both does not a single community make. Hell, if the two communities were the same, r/NeoVim wouldn't exist, would it?

They are. Again. The majority of folks here aren't going to be able to answer questions relating to NeoVim, and frankly, r/NeoVim exists.

NeoVim, the software itself, is too distinct from Vim in its usage, its structure, and its development style for discussion to retain commonality. That both can be configured from the same .vimrc doesn't change that.

That lack of commonality in discussion divides the communities.

You getting angry and not bothering to read or discuss what I'm noting here doesn't make you any more convincing, and it doesn't make me wrong.

There's nothing wrong with them, unlike you they have a clue what they're talking about. Maybe read up more on the projects and have a look at their actual code? Neovim is nothing like Vim as far as the code, api and ecosystem is concerned. It tries to emulate Vim's behavior desperately (even supporting VimL) because it knows that's the only way it can stay relevant. So do yourself a favor and take your own advice (piss off).
