#vim was charityware with Bram collecting donations for Uganda 🇺🇬 . #neovim was started in Brazil 🇧🇷 and inspired a global community.

I backed the original fundraiser for kickstarting Neovim so I am incredibly sad to see that since 2024 Neovim seems to feature a testimonial by David Heinemeier Hansson, who is known to promote policies such as deportations.

What’s more troubling is the reluctance of the Neovim core team to just make it right (and revert for example https://github.com/neovim/neovim.github.io/commit/5e921ab78ee56f0b0ebd2ff1bb958bbb7026470f ) [the quote that was replaced was characterizing better what makes Neovim cool].
