No, SDF doesn't have any particular bad rap, most of you are nice. There's a reason there hasn't been any serious discussion of defedding Hexbear from SDF.
But all the same, not being from Hexbear or Lemmygrad (and to a lesser extent lemmy.ml) means that foreign policy takes I don't agree with are more common. Especially since there's often people that will have leftist beliefs about domestic politics, but have different feelings about foreign policy. Not to say that Hexbears can't have bad takes, but but it's fewer, farther between, and they often end up with the comment removed or are banned quickly.
Perhaps my wording was a bit misleading, though.
Make a plugin to a non-vim editor that properly emulates the vim experience, with the non-vim GUI.
Or, if that doesn't work well enough, fork them.
Failing that, you could just accept your fate. I love my neovim install.
