Comment.nvim: Simple and powerful comment plugin for neovim. Supports commentstring, dot repeat, left-right/up-down motions, hooks, and more
Yeah, you are right but currently, most of them only support commentstring which means only single-line comments. But block comments are sometimes useful too. Also, I was using tcomment before, which IMO is the best commenting plugin for vim/neovim as it supports left-right motion comments which I haven't seen in any Lua plugin as of now. So that's why I decided to write this plugin to honor tcomment and to port all of its features to Lua :)

Plugin 'https://github.com/tomtom/tcomment_vim' Comment out code with this plugin, instead.

nerdcommenter seems to better figure out what comment syntax to use than vim-commentary, but i like vim-commentary more at everything else
That said, I switched to tcomment years ago because it better detected single va multi-line comments for me.

vim-commentary block vs line comments
Vim-commentary is great, but AFAICT, only supports one commenting style per file type. tcomment.vim supports line, inline, and block styles.

My Solution to Block Comments
I've replaced most of my custom maps for commenting with tpope's commentary plugin. It's a great plugin. However, I wasn't happy with the lack of multi-line/block comment abilities so I created some maps to compliment the commentary plugin. Here are some maps that can be used with autocmd, FileType and for JavaScript comments.
