Github Pages vs Repo Stars
I made Github Pages from some of my repositories. It's a nice feature, thanks!

Anybody switch from their own configs to one of the neovim "distros"?
$NVIM_APPNAME might help if the distro's file structure doesn't work with your git model (like, AstroNvim wants you to use a sub-theme-thing for your personal config customizations, and this might not be graceful to implement as just a separate git branch). https://gist.github.com/elijahmanor/b279553c0132bfad7eae23e34ceb593b has some shell functions using nvim_appname for easily switching between different config repos and even https://github.com/doctorfree/nvim-lazyman for trying out different distros.

are you using `nvim -l` to run scripts? if so.... how or for what purpose???
I haven't posted much about lazyman because I'm busy working on it and it is changing rapidly. Also, as you can see, a lot of my time is spent dreaming up Neovim configuration management fantasies.

Looking for some configs using lazy.nvim, to use as reference for creating my own.
There are many excellent distributions, personal configurations, and custom configurations to study. I wrote a Neovim configuration manager to make it easy for me to install, initialize, and explore multiple Neovim configurations. Most of the popular Neovim distributions and configurations are supported in this tool.

A Huge Shoutout to the Preconfiguration Contributors for Their Incredible Work! From own configuration to LazyVim/AstroNvim
I'm also a fan of these preconfigured Neovim configurations. I've learned a lot by exploring many of them. To help me install and initialize multiple Neovim configurations I wrote Lazyman, a Neovim configuration manager. Currently Lazyman supports over 40 Neovim configurations.

SpaceVim in the Lazyman Neovim Configuration Manager
See https://github.com/doctorfree/nvim-lazyman for info on Lazyman.
- Can some one share minimal lua config without plugins (or 1 or 2 plugins like nvim-tree is ok)?

Lazyman Neovim Configuration Manager
Currently lazyman supports Neovim configurations using the Lazy, Packer, and vim-plug plugin managers. Not all Neovim configurations install and initialize cleanly. Some have hard-coded paths assuming ~/.config/nvim as the configuration location. Others do not initialize cleanly from the command line (nvim --headless ...). However, many configurations not supported out-of-the-box by lazyman can be installed and initialized. If you find an interesting configuration that works well with Lazyman or if your favorite config does not initialize cleanly with Lazyman then open an issue at https://github.com/doctorfree/nvim-lazyman/issues

VSCode's SSH Agent Is Bananas
I do my full-time development work using Neovide (a GUI frontend to nvim) over SSH. As a long-time vim user, this is great for me, but I will freely admit that it is nowhere near as easy to set up as VSCode, and it is also fundamentally a dumb client over SSH, so it suffers from lag spikes. There has been some discussion about what a smart client version of nvim would look like, but it's probably years out: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/24690
