Vim is great for editing in general and coding simple things but I kind of gave up on using it as an IDE. Too many plugins to configure, to many breaking changes, too many bugs. My current issue is that after couple hours or days code formatting simply breaks and starts mangling my code. Only full restart fixes the problem. It's impossible to figure out were the issue is as there are so many plugins and external tools involved. I still think it's amazing you can setup vim to work as a full IDE with code completion, refactoring, formatting and all but it's just not stable enough. I reluctantly switched to Zed with vim mode. I miss smooth scrolling but other then that it's really nice.
