I am a NeoVim user, and I started learning emacs once, but was really unimpressed with the multi-key shortcut soup. Now that Lua is baked into NeoVim anyways, and plugin devs don't have to be Tom Pope, I expect the quality of vim plugins to explode and I'm hoping that we'll catch up to all the things emacs has been ahead on in the next few years.
