What is Your Preferred Vim Setup When Writing Code in Raku?
My vim looks like most peoples, I guess. I have a few plugins to make things pretty, eg. LightLine and IndentGuides, and I use Syntastic for linting. I tried Ale but found it too annoying in practice.

Moving list items up and down?
I like this plugin: https://github.com/matze/vim-move. It can move lines in visual mode and normal mode as well as properly indenting.

Small drama: The nicest vim user takes it personal offence when another user shares constructive criticism about vim plugins' language.
Vim is a decades old text editor that has become a tool for power users thanks to Vimscript, a language dedicated to writing Vim plugins (here's a small example, not mine). In the last few years, a project called Neovim has started re-writing Vim and adding support for writing plugins with Lua, which was already popular in game modding like Gmod or TBOI. This has led many users to reconsider the basis of both Vimscript and Lua and others to feel there's an (inexistent) grudge between the two developer teams.
