Vim-gh-line: Vim plugin to open the current line on GitHub

I don't get the appeal of vim over vim emulators. I've always used essentially stock vim with no plugins so I find myself using JetBrains emulated vim. A language server has become necessary for me. If vim LSP competes with JetBrains LSP, I'd make the switch. I have never tried but if I was taking bets I'd bet on JetBrains for what I assume are obvious reasons.

Language servers are pluggable to any frontend via the Language Server Protocol (LSP), and vim has plenty of frontends to go with whatever backend you desire. I like https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim, check out the gif on the readme

I have never tried a Vim emulation mode that was not extremely irritating because it got some basic thing very wrong and multiple basic things not quite right.

I've been using nvim with LSP (via coc.nvim) for more that a year now. After switching from IDEA.

I feel much more productive with vim's speed and plugins then with IDEA\Goland, where I was using less that 20% of it's power I guess.

Not to mention that even on MBPr 2019 with 2-3 copies of IDEA in action - IDEA starts to lag like crazy.

Neovim 0.5 which will come with inbuilt, native LSP is expected to be released soon. It will also feature init.lua - vim config in Lua instead of vimscript!
