vim.org has 242k total visitors, tailwindcss.com has 4.4m, planetscale.com has 412k, jpl.nasa.gov has 2.6m, all built with Tailwind, all several years younger than Vim's website. Unnecessary comparison, unnecessary defence. It's a valuable tool, fine, but a complete disregard for anyone who doesn't love a crappy website and would like to navigate a website like a normal human is not something to be defended. Maybe it's not a big deal, it's built for developers anyway, but it DEFINITELY is not a decision to be applauded. Vim is literally a text editor, not the tool that changed the world ffs. Git is arguably a more useful and more complex tool than Vim but has a nice website that any one using can easily navigate and find help on quickly

Exactly my point. Case in reference: docs.python.org, git-scm.org, rust-lang.org, neovim.io, you don't need anything fancy. This is deliberately chasing a particular type of programmer away...
