Setting up VIM for blogging
Looking for synonyms? VIM supports thesaurus, however it has to be configured. I was able to configure the built in feature but it needed a hack to handle multi word synonyms and I didn't like that. I've decided to install vim-lexical plugin. Just as the built in feature, the plugin needs a synonyms file to work: grabbed one from Project Gutenberg. Tell vim-lexical where the file is and initialize the plugin:

Writing like a pro with vale & neovim
You can try proselint, which also has built-in support in null-ls. Its LaTeX support isn't perfect, but it's workable.

Is there a reliable Grammarly package for Emacs?
Vale uses a customizable grammar checker, and you can download some open-source configurations to start working with from the link above. Then, you just need to add something like below to your Emacs configuration: (flycheck-define-checker vale "A prose linter" :command ("vale" "--output" "line" source) :standard-input nil :error-patterns ((error line-start (file-name) ":" line ":" column ":" (id (one-or-more (not (any ":")))) ":" (message) line-end)) :modes (markdown-mode org-mode text-mode) ) (add-to-list 'flycheck-checkers 'vale 'append) (setq flycheck-vale-executable "/usr/local/bin/vale") It looks like you can do something similar with Proselint, which looks wonderful and I have been meaning to try using in my day-to-day: https://unconj.ca/blog/linting-prose-in-emacs.html .

Setting up VIM for blogging
Full list here. Since the tool is a linter, it sounds like it should work with language servers. I use CoC.nvim for LSP features. Thankfully some smart guys have figured out how to make proselint work with coc.nvim & coc-diagnostic (see here). Now it works for my blog posts just like clangd does for my C++ code.
