Learning Rust, I didn't expect such a backstab
At the end of the day I don't really care which a project goes with, I've always just used vim-sleuth to automatically set my tab key to input whatever the current file's indentation is.
-
Trouble detecting shiftwidth correctly
VsCode has an internal function from auto-detecting indentation, while my config uses vim-sleuth with indent-blankline.nvim.

Builtin EditorConfig support
If you work a lot on legacy codebases, https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth is probably more what you need than editorconfig, as it will work even when one is not present.
-
New plugin for handling soft/hard line wrapping - wrapping.nvim
The primary advantage of using it is that it has built in heuristics for detecting line wrapping when opening a file (with some Treesitter magic for Markdown to make it more accurate), and also allows for manual swapping between wrapping types. You can think of it as the wrapping equivalent to vim-sleuth.

How do I force Neovim to always give me two space indents (or the correct indent) everywhere.
I just found about Tim Pope's sleuth: https://github.com/tpope/vim-sleuth It supports editorconfig but it also seems to have just better heuristics when an editorconfig file isn't present, so I just decided to replace `editorconfig-vim` with it.

How to set indentation dynamically based on language?
Another solution is try sleuth.vim, that sets automatically your indentation based on the project, buffer and editorconfig

I use the default file browser in vim (netrw). I know there are plugins that a lot of people like. Should I switch?
I personally use nerdtree. Add nerdtree-git-plugin too, that's nice when looking at your project (for files, use vim-gitgutter).

Margin indicator for Neovim
That said, Neovim can still run most Vimscript plugins just fine, so you can still use https://github.com/chrisbra/changesPlugin (and https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter and https://github.com/mhinz/vim-signify/, which are mentioned in the README) if you want.

:DiffOrig changes reflected in sign column
vim-signify or git gutter can do this for files managed by git.

What "new-to-you" tool did you recently start using that just changed your workflow for the better?
https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter Since your already on neovim these plugins are excellent for git integration within vim! You may just prefer lazygit but having a tight integration in editor is definitely really nice for my personal workflow. Your approach is more unix-y where you have a tool for each job though!

Are there plugins for Neovim that don't exist, that should exist, in your opinion?
vim-gitgutter supports staging/undoing hunks and a hunk text object. I find it convenient for this exact workflow.
