I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
Why not? Because I don't understand the configuration, to be honest. I've tried it and it's too much like magic, and the things that are supposed to be great about it fall into precisely three camps:
Stuff that's also in Vim since version 8.blah now.
Stuff that I'll never use.
Stuff that doesn't work.
So it's a learning curve for no benefit. I might try again sometime I have a weekend to play around.
EDIT: I just installed it, aliased it to vim and used your configuration snippet (though my .vimrc is actually ~/.vim/vimrc but that's a niggle).

I've noticed one thing: when starting or stopping nvim it often hangs completely. I have to repeatedly bash ctrl-c until it comes to life or gives me a terminal back. I'm not sure what's causing that, there are no messages about it, but it's presumably something to do with my collection of plugins.

Probably different plugins conflicting. It does indicate that its vim-ness isn't 100%, which is a downside, but it's probably easy to track down and comment out the offending plugin.

Hu that's weird. I didn't have that issue.
