Version error

same here.
For CosmicNvim, there's a hard requirement for neovim v0.10, i.e. nightly.
However, I may consider stepping the required version down and only allowing v0.10 features if running the correct neovim version.
@mattleong it would be less confusing if this was clearly stated in the install instructions as a prerequisite

@PiotrOwsiak Is there a better place than where it has been for quite some time? I'm fairly sure this is already what you asked for, verbatim. 😉
@mattleong sorry for not being clear enough, I meant that it would be good if it was clearly stated that the version required is a nightly cause right now it does look like a potential mistake and people who use package managers may not even know exactly which version they are using but if you state it is nightly then it will be pretty clear to them that they don't meet the requirements if they use a package manager and just update to latest official release every now and then.
What happened in my case was that I do not track every new release and don't even know what it the latest so I saw that Neovim +0.10.0 is required which I thought, well I may already have it and if not then I'll just quick upgrade using brew buuut it turned out I cannot just upgrade cause it is nightly which makes things far more complex and for me personally I prefer to wait rather than spent extra time on my work machine fiddling with stuff. I guess if it was clear to me that Cosmic requires nightly I would not even try it at this point, so IMHO if you could add this one extra word to the pre-requisites it would really help.
@PiotrOwsiak Done 👍
