For me, boomer editors (mostly nvim to be honest) join a long list of other things like tiling window managers as something I genuinely want to learn, but that I can never justify learning over either learning something else or doing "real work". I've been slowly introducing both and making gradual progress, but its extremely slow
Just pick a specific task that you do routinely (say markdown editing) and just use neovim for that one task - eat the elephant one bite at a time and markdown is generally small enough/light enough that you won't get out into the weeds trying to make neovim the perfect IDE in the process.
