How can I get started with VIM or NEOVIM??!!
PS: As you get proficient with Vim, you'll probably want to extend it with plugins, so you should look into package managers when you'll be a decent Vimmer; I use minpac but there are plenty of others. But for now, focus on learning Vim; you don't want to install a plugin to do something that Vim can do out of the box.

The Vundle github repo seems to have disappeared
It’s been such a long time since I’ve used it. Don’t know how it compares, but minpac is super simple and uses vim’s native package system (the latter can also be used on its own) https://github.com/k-takata/minpac

Is there any way to update all the plugins installed using the built-in package manager?
There are package managers that are built on top of Vim's package system, the one I use is minpac which has a list of other plugin managers using Vim's package system in its README.

Help with plug
Options: - packloadall command family and maybe git submodules - minpac which is a thin utility around the above - vim-plug - old but still popular for it does the job - packer.nvim is a popular choice for lua configs, never got to using it myself - paq-nvim is another often mentioned lua solution - dozens of other solutions

How to manage Vims dot files (version >8.2), if there are complete plugins inside .vim?
I'm not sure about vim-plug, but I use minpac which does use vim's native plugin location. The selling point is that the installs and updates are managed via the plugin's commands. As part of my dotfiles, the install command is run.

Can't add packer as my plug manager.
I went back to using minpac. It uses vim's package feature, but doesn't have to compile anything. I like that I don't have to load it unless I download something.

what vimL plugins are you still using?

Favorite unfamous vim/neovim plugin?
k-takata/minpac, the plugin manager that stays out my way. It can live as an optional plugin, it's not loaded unless I update or install something.

Creating a lua interface for minpac
I like minpac, it's a good plugin manager. It does what I want. Exactly what I want. Problem is it's written in vimscript, which is something I'm trying to avoid right now. I have no good reason to avoid vimscript... I just don't want to write any. By now I have read enough about lua and the neovim api to create a wrapper that would make minpac a little bit more "lua friendly".
