I must be a minority then. I tried it once - as in, I made a real, honest attempt at liking it and making it work for me - and all it managed to do is show me it's buggy and confused, and to convince me to steer well clear of it and stick to vanilla Vim.
I really really dislike Neovim.
Also, I question the vailidy of a survey in which VSCode is 13 times more "desired" - whatever that means, it's not like it's hard to procure - than VSCodium, given that VSCodium is VSCode sans the Microsoft spyware. Makes no sense to me...
I don't know how to open that post on my instance so I can reply to it, but if you're willing to give it another shot, I figured out how to get
indentexpr=
to apply to all buffers from init.vim, using an auto command. Add this to your init.vim:Ah, thanks for your efforts, you're very kind. But I'm done with Neovim. It's already wasted more of my time that it was ever going to be worth.
I wanted to try Neovim to give Treesitter a spin. In the end, I went with something much simpler that works immediately and without drama in Vim and does what I really wanted all along: simple, dumb autocompletion.
