I want to use it on my work PC (Windows) but its so slow its basically unusable. So I use VS with a Vim plugin.

I experienced the same bug in winslop: It is not the neovim fault, but the terminal emulator. While WT (default for 11) is good enough, for some computers it is pretty laggy. I recommend wezterm.

Source: I manage many onprem windows PCs with automation, and some 1 of them experienced this issue.

Whoa you weren't kidding! It still chugs in our large project, and I have some Windows issues in my config to fix, but nvim itself runs well for me now!

I am happy that I've been useful 😄 The experience on windows will always be worse than on linux sadly. But I have no choice, I have to use winslop for work, so I made it work. 😅

I may try this. Thank you for the tip!
