I tried getting into nvim (handy for editing from the CLI or over ssh), but within weeks the plugin system started getting weird errors.
Then I tested Helix[0] when a friend suggested it and it Just Works. Along with LSP support that just picks up language servers automatically if you install them.
The target-action command style takes some getting used to after (n)vim's action-target style, but I actually prefer it now.

fwiw, the plugin system doesn't magically just get "weird errors", its always some form of user negligence.
I literally didn’t touch it and it started throwing errors :)
