1 | [Onivim](https://v2.onivim.io) is a 'modern modal editor', combining fancy | ||
2 | interface and language features with vim-style modal editing. What's wrong you | ||
3 | ask? | ||
4 | |||
5 | Apart from [buggy syntax highlighting](https://github.com/onivim/oni2/issues/550), | ||
6 | [broken scrolling](https://github.com/onivim/oni2/issues/519) and | ||
7 | [others](https://github.com/onivim/oni2/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed+label%3A%22daily+editor+blocker%22), | ||
8 | Onivim is **proprietary** software. It is licenced under a commercial | ||
9 | [end user agreement licence](https://github.com/onivim/oni2/blob/master/Outrun-Labs-EULA-v1.1.md), | ||
10 | which prohibits redistribution in both object code and source code formats. | ||
11 | |||
12 | Onivim's source code is availabe on [GitHub](https://github.com/onivim/oni2), | ||
13 | but its licences make it fall under the 'source availabe' catagory and not | ||
14 | 'open source'. They do mention that the source code trickes down to the | ||
15 | [oni2-mit](https://github.com/onivim/oni2-mit) repo, which contains (not yet) | ||
16 | MIT-licenced code, **18 months** after each commit to the original repo. | ||
17 | |||
18 | Contributing to Onivim? Don't. They make a profit out of your contributions. | ||
19 | Currently, Onivim is priced at $19.99, 'pre-alpha' pricing which is 80% off the | ||
20 | final price! If you are on the lookout for an editor, I would suggest using | ||
21 | [Vim](https://vim.org), charityware that actually works, and costs $100 lesser. | ||
