Try out this config
Make sure to remove or move your current nvim directory

You'll probably notice you don't have support for copy/paste also that python and node haven't been setup
So let's fix that
First we'll fix copy/paste
-
On mac
pbcopyshould be builtin -
On Ubuntu
sudo apt install xsel -
On Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S xsel
Next we need to install python support (node is optional)
-
Neovim python support
pip install pynvim -
Neovim node support
npm i -g neovim
NOTE make sure you have node installed, I recommend a node manager like fnm.
