I really wanted to love nvim, because I think that some philosophies it tries to follow better match my way of thinking. However, I tried several times to configure it to match 1:1 my vim config and to stick to it, but there are several edge cases that vim solves better. Additionally, nvim with my workflow crashes sometimes, while vim doesn't.



As someone who just started using nvim, and assumed that vim was identical (or close enough to it that it can just be considered identical), what are these edge cases/differences?


There are issues in how the terminal is handled and the numbering of the buffers. Moving between the buffers (e.g. C-w, C-t) is not configured by default on nvim.
