    Where do you think all the contributors to vim came from? Do you think they just appeared day one? This fork just started. Of course there are no other contributors. Every project is a failure if they need to have multiple people working on it the day it’s conceived.

      I’d say that every project needs at least one capable person working on it at conception. This one appears to have zero at the moment.

        So do you know everyone working on it? To assume noone is capable? Because otherwise this is just offensive. Also the project has been created less than 24 hours ago, so what do u expect already a ton of differences ?

          The premise of the comment I responded to was that there are no other contributors besides the the person who forked it, and very same person said that they don’t know vimscript.
