Why Kakoune
I've used all except Kakoune. For me, Neovim is the one that stuck. Helix is cool, but having no plugins is a deal breaker (for now!) The onboarding experience is much nicer for sure, and Helix's LSP is way easier to set up than Neovim's.
That being said, Neovim, once you get it set up, is great. The biggest hurdle for me was the config, but if you just start from scratch and make a light config (mines about 200-300 lines, with LSP, hints, etc) you can get through it. And you never have to touch it again, since most likely you configured it in a way you like. Well unless you wanna add the occasional plugin. There are also distros of Neovim that contain a fully baked IDE-lite experience, but honestly those have extremely complicated config, and often IME don't feel nice and light.
It's definitely not for everyone. There is that time investment to get started, but it's definitely been worth it for me.

Not very motivated for such a harsh critic..

Can we write a Neo-vim Successor using rust?
Not Rust, but there's vis which aims to be a Vi(m) inspired editor with Sam's structural regular expressions.

I do not use vim nor a WM nor a Thinkpad, but I do use vis. It's great.

Helix: Release 23.03 Highlights
> They either break from Vim's model (kakoune, helix) or follow Vim along with all it's flaws (Neovim, Vis).
I am sincerely curious of what flaws from Vim has Vis inherited, in your opinion.
I have the impression that the design idea of Vis is taking only the modal design of Vi (not Vim), plus the structural regular expressions of Sam, then make it as clean as possible with programmability via Lua plugins.
In fact, the state non-goals [1] seems to clearly distant itself from Vim.
