Awesome concept! Thanks for building this. One possible issue - There needs to be some kind of search for finding similar "VimBits". I wanted to add some of my favorites, but I have no way of knowing whether they're there already without reading through everything on the site. You'll probably get a massive amount of duplication unless you can implement some kind of "suggested duplicates" on the create page, like Stac…

This, and a "hot" section. To get a constant flow of new and good entry. For example, by showing the best of the month/week/day.

Yeah, I agree. I didn't expect such a quick influx of new bits- definitely need a way to detect duplicates.

And if not that, a copy to clipboard feature would be the next best thing - right now highlighting also grabs the extra text so copy/pasting these takes a bit of extra work and cleanup.

How about keeping a (per-user) .vimrc.bits file on the site itself, then a button per bit would add/remove that snippet from my .vimrc.bits, which I can include in my main .vimrc. This could get better integration with the site, given it would be reasonably simple to remove snippets as well as add them.

That would have the additional advantage of giving you easy access to your vimrc no matter what computer you were on.

Same thing with user signup happened to me. No visual feedback, taken back to signup page, no email was sent. But I could login just fine...

Apologies; I'd intended to post this on HN after a few more bugs had been worked out, but I was beaten to it. I'll fix the lack of visual feedback shortly, although there's currently no email verification.

Sorry it's my fault! I found your submission on reddit and thought it deserved to be shared - it didn't come to my mind you'd rather submit here by yourself.
