    Everyone at work is using Cursor these days, except for me using neovim and my emacs loving coworker. When we present during pair programming our coworkers go nuts over watching our workflows and trying to figure out if they can do similar things in Cursor lol.

      What is Cursor, another AI-infested slop?

        It’s a version of VSCode with deep AI integration. I’ll say, it’s pretty good from a workflow perspective. But I just use Avante to similar effect.

      Neovim and emacs are both incredibly heavy. I would rather just use something like VScodium.

      Nano and Vim are small and quick.

        I would like you to open the same file in neovim, Emacs, and vscodium and see the ram usage.

        Matter of fact I’ve done this for you (230 line json):

        heavily customised emacs: 34 MB
        heavily customised neovim: 32 MB
        Newly installed vscodium: 300 MB+

        both emacs and neovim have syntax highlighting, completion, mouse support, terminal support, window management, and so on
