I am curious if any of the termsync options can make neovim play nicely with mosh. My dream setup is to be able to spin up preconfigured dev environments in docker containers, and use blink shell on my iPad for on the go coding. Unfortunately mosh and neovim always end up with display corruption.

Q or @ to execute a macro over all visually selected lines is a feature I didn't know about but sounds amazing.

All too often I create a macro that I want to execute many times, but it's hard to know how many. I've tried the guessing approach but that has a tendency to under- or overestimate.

I love seeing the development of an amazing modern replacement for Vim. I look forward to the moment where it has tons of plugins that are as easy to install as VSCode extensions are.

Pretty much exactly what is needed. Helix shows the way IMO but the Neovim guys are clearly not conservative. Exciting to see the tree sitter and lsp improvements.

Including more basic (as of 2024) features in the core like Helix would indeed be a good idea but would go against the existing culture of vim with many plugins competing.

You might find relative line numbers useful. `set relativenumber`

I used to use blink quite a lot on my iPad and I’ve noticed it really going “weird” lately.

They have some script that executed on login, which tried to “upgrade” my connections to mosh by downloading a static mosh bin from some server they own (so, could contain anything) and it was opt out — and lately randomly some keys just stop working on the keyboard (like, the c key just doesn’t work at all in the app).

I jumped ship to Termius, shame. How’s your experience lately?

Wow. Almost all of these are things that I will be using right away. It's not often that a release, especially one for software that has lineage back decades, is so relevant to my use cases.

I already had `K` set to LSP hover.

I just switched my comment plugin to get something LSP aware.

Hyperlinks can be a bit annoying. Because sometimes the line wraps so default terminal auto-linking doesn't work properly. Having explicit metadata will be excellent.

I already had inlay hints enabled, but they would appear at the end of the line. Having these in the right place will be fantastic.

`gx` open is not something that I was already using but I will probably start using this.
