People who swear by Oil.nvim , why?
For me I think it’s the best at what it does (with mini.files coming in a close second. It would probably be my first, but I prefer the whole buffer approach over the floating popups.) I’ve tried dirbuf.nvim as well, but I didn’t like that I couldn’t copy/move files.

What are the plugins you consider necessary to have a great neovim experience?
Shout-out to dirbuf.nvim as it is one of my favorite plugins I cannot live without, but I see it rarely mentioned. It allows you to do file management by editing a file, so you can do anything you would do to edit any regular file. There are no new keymaps to learn, you just use any regular motion, :s, :g, or anything you can think of. Great for bulk renaming!

My thoughts about editors in 2022
While I do use file managers often (ranger and dolphin are pretty nice overall), within Neovim my file management is fairly reduced. I use dirbuf when I need to browse through files (for refactors or something), and since it's dired-like its a lot more built into the "vim-as-a-language" mindset. Not to say I do a whole lot in it, but it is quicker than having to do shell stuff within Neovim. I think file-tree plugins tend to just miss the concept for me, as I never found them to be anything more than just "look and see" due to disconnect from the aforementioned "vim-as-a-language"

What file explorer do you use?
https://github.com/elihunter173/dirbuf.nvim, it's basically netrw done right.
-
netwr like file explorer for neovim?
https://github.com/elihunter173/dirbuf.nvim might just be the thing. In terms of navigating it's as minimal as it can be:
-
What file manager do you use?
I use fish shell with z plugin to quickly jump to directories and nnn file manager mainly to select files for deletion. I also use dirbuf plugin for neovim when working inside this editor.

dirbuf.nvim!

Which file browser do you use ?
dirbuf mostly. Anything really advanced and I'll just open a new ranger session

What is the coolest, unknown(-ish) plugin that you're using that other people could benefit from?
dirbuf doesn't get enough attention. It's a robust, simple, yet featureful replacement for the netrw plugin built into Vim/NeoVim. It allows directories to be treated somewhat like files - edit a directory, and you get a directory listing. That listing can be modified - add files, edit files, delete files, and the result ends up on disk. A much simpler and more-Vimy alternative to tree plugins like NeoTree, in my view.

Alternative to vim-textmanip plugin? (move selected blocks of text)
This is essentially a tagline of mini.move.

Refactor files and update import paths
Just as the others suggested, oil.nvim solves this outta the box. I freaking love it (here my config in case ya need it). Apparently also mini.files handles this by default

Backwards inner/outer motions?
You mean backwards seeking text objects? You can get those with mini.ai https://github.com/echasnovski/mini.nvim/blob/main/readmes/mini-ai.md

mini.nvim - release 0.10.0 (files, clue, operators, and minor updates)
I would like to offer you to join me in saying late greetings to this autumn with a release of mini.nvim version 0.10.0. It is mostly about introducing three (quite feature full, dare I say) modules and minor updates of existing ones.

Shoutouts to u/echasnovski
Last night I cleaned up all the dead code in my config and realised that mini.nvim has to be the single best plugin that I've used. I have a couple of other favourites but this collection has been so consistently good that I wanted to give some thanks to the juggernaut that is u/echasnovski! Thanks for all the work you plugin authors and core maintainers put in to make this editor what it is <3

Looking for good tutorials for learning to use neovim as an IDE.
For example: I spent a lot of time configuring file tree plugins to have the same sorting as VS Code, tweaking their icons, etc. But then I realized I barely used the file explorer at all, and now I'm super happy with the minimal approach of mini.files. I had similar experiences with other plugins that were just adding "fluff" instead of the functionality I was looking for.

mini.files updates - file preview, prefix customization, change target window, and more
Around two weeks ago I've announced the release of mini.files - a file explorer module of mini.nvim with column view navigation and "edit text to manipulate file system" design. This resulted into a great feedback from the community, much of which turned into new features.
