+1 I was really attached to my vim config but decided to try out SpaceVim [1] (the vim version of SpaceMacs) after a stint using VSCode and after reinstalling my OS (before pulling in my usual vim .git) and I was surprised it was almost the same as what I spent years perfecting but with a far better and logical key mapping scheme that fit neatly across plugins + a nice programming language extension/layer scheme.

It's the oh-my-zsh of vim/emacs.

After a year of SpaceVim, when I finally found time, I ended up switching back to my more lightweight and stripped down version of NeoVim but copied the keymapping approach and some of the individual configs. It was a great starting point.

If you're a) new to vim/emacs or b) tired of maintaining your own config for w/e reason, Space[x] is entirely usable in it's default state with good documentation. It also updates often and stays on the cutting edge of various plugins and progression in the community, but with the stability of a larger community.

It defeats a lot of the learning/config curve arguments again vim/emacs.
