I’ve used VS Code for a long time, but have recently grown weary of Microsoft’s approach to OSS. I’ve checked out VS Codium which seems like it might be a great option.
What text editor are you using?

What text editor are you using?
TL;DR: Neovim.
Because I feel exceptionally happy today, I’m going to talk about my journey among text editors:
Unnecessary text
I will start from Vim.
I started using Vim 5 years ago.
i = 0
while (still using vim) and i < 6:
test Emacs vanilla
give up with Emacs vanilla
i++
wait 1-4 months
test Emacs Xah-Fly-Keys;
Success
wait 2 months
Back to Vim.
Test again vanilla Emacs 2 more times while using vim.
Test again xah-fly-keys Emacs.
After Several months…
Upgrade to Neovim!
2 days later: Back to Vim.
X more time.
We are on Q1 2020. Let’s use Doom Emacs!
While using Doom Emacs I copy vim configs to Neovim because I got bored of Doom for a week.
Doom possesses me for 2 years (while still using Neovim for terminal things sometimes).
2021 Summer I move my Vimrc configs on neovim to Lua. Still Doom.
Doom Emacs decides to no longer open and freezes on startup. Nice.
Now I’m on Neovim. Waiting for nativecomp Emacs. I still regularly open Doom Emacs to check whether it got fixed magically by itself (no luck as of today).
I’m happy with with neovim currently. I feel like neovim is like more robust and Doom Emacs can like do many many super cool and maybe little things, but sometimes decides to bug itself. Hard choice.
Have you tried

?Your comment didn’t arrive to me until today. I already fixed the problem. I seemed to have some kind of error on my config, but for some reason I didn’t matter until the day Emacs broke. dunno.
