    I don't see why you would write a plugin in VimL in 2021. I mean even VimL's author decided to just create a new language — vim9 script — instead of fixing this one [1].

    With neovim rpc you can write glorious plugins in TypeScript and Python such as coc.nvim [2].

    Other than that, I'm inspired by amount of work you put in the project.

    I think its cryptic reputation comes form the use of normal mode commands and regex within scripts. There certainly are warts, like the user's 'ignorecase' setting permeating to many places in the runtime. Which I'd love to see fixed and whilst may also represent a breaking change for some scripts would be far more easily adoptable.
