| FRidh | I suggest having a NixOS foundation channel where topics related to the foundation can be discussed. Maybe as a rule we should mention in the topic though that if a reply is sought from a board member, discourse should be used? | 11:22:15 |

 @sofo:matrix.org | Could we create a #neovim:nixos.org channel?
There seems to be reasonable demand for a NixOS spessific channel about the topic, similar to #emacs:nixos.org for emacs. Youtube has videos about the topic such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUvjkBuKua4 which already have over 10k views. There also exists a lot of external interest from places like r/neovim as well: https://www.reddit.com/r/neovim/comments/yagf37/which_plugin_manager_are_you_using/ There are also people in this matrix community as well who would be interested, one i know of directly is @shane:sveller.social

 Sandro | Why not name it vim and include vim and neovim since there is quite some overlap?
| 16:06:08 |
 kevincox | Call it vi to ensure it isn't specific to vim either. | 16:07:21 |
| kevincox | ...although I'm sure someone is running some old original vi on nix. | 16:07:35 |
| @sofo:matrix.org | That is entirely possible, i chose against it for the suggestion as most individuals who customize their install now run Neovim over Vim. But it may also be called #vim:nixos.org to include both. | 16:08:14 |

Call it vi to ensure it isn't specific to vim either. jokes aside, vim and neovim are very close and you can with a few ifs re-use the config. vi is is no longer. | 16:08:59 |

jokes aside, vim and neovim are very close and you can with a few ifs re-use the config. vi is is no longer. This is if you use the older viml over the new standard of lua in neovim. Most neovim configs are not possible to backport without serious investment. But neovim can run all plugins and configurations from vim. | 16:09:56 |
