From my experience the only big changes I'd say I made overtime are:

  1. Font size bumped up

  2. Switched to neovim from visual studio, which took like a year to relearn my entire workflow (100% worth it though)

  3. Switched from multiscreen setup to one single big screen (largely due to #2 above no longer needing a second screen, tmux+harpoon+telescope+fzf goes brrrr)

  4. Switched to a standing desk with a treadmill, because I became able to afford a larger living space where I can fit such a setup.

If I were to do this meme though it'd mostly be #1, there just came a day when I had to pop open my settings and ++ the font size a couple times, that's how I knew I was getting old.

Switching to Neovim is on my to-do list. What do you recommend as a good way to get up to speed?

Try starting with LazyVim! It has a great selection of plugins pre-set, and it all works out of the box. It's a great way to get started, and then you can add/remove plugins later on. Also, it's keymap-shortcut page is great for the first week or so of learning the commands.

Or kick start has been my fav. Uses lazyvim

I disagree with this recommendation, the maintainer closed a breaking issue (default syntax highlighting breaks on clean install) saying "workaround exists". That's a red flag ime.
