That's interesting to me since I've been using close-to-vanilla lunarvim for the past year and it's been great. I'm just not into customizing my editor much, and only touch my config when I'm annoyed by something. This seems to be your goal as well. Can I ask then what makes lazyvim easier or quicker to set up how you want?

I found lunarvim to just not work that well for web development out of the box (if I tried doing anything past vanilla JS), and I have no interest in learning about lunarvim specific things like the lvim global object to be able to tweak it.

100% and I dislike having two vim configurations to maintain which is why they also have https://github.com/LunarVim/nvim-basic-ide

With LazyVim I basically got rid of the both, and now my vim config is literally a few overrides https://www.lazyvim.org/configuration/general that are not distribution specific at all.
