Post-modern?!
It's a joke. If neovim is the modern vim, then helix is post-modern.I never thought people would adamantly defend links like this - "sure they made up something that makes no sense, but they back peddle once you click the link"
Not only that, this isn't even a text editor, it is a front end for neovim.
Why do you believe this is a front-end for neovim and not a text editor?
Though I think its fair since neo vim is referred to and means new vim. The author here likely believes helix to be more modern than neo vim hence, post modern.
Whatever, I'm sure you understood that. I enjoyed the humor and think its fair
And no, it's not a neovim frontend.
