I heard a lot about slowness of oh-my-zsh but never experienced it myself.

I had slow starts when I added nvm completion to .zshrc and .. maybe conda environment but that was unrelated to oh-my-zsh

I've also not experienced any slowness with oh-my-zsh. Now LunarVim, which is an IDE-like layer for Neovim...that's a totally different story.

Hmm? What about LunarVim?

If you add more than a handful of plugins in any of these IDE layers for Neovim, like LunarVim, LazyVim, AstroNvim, &c., it can slow things down to an unacceptable level quickly.

That really depends. On the iTerm2 terminal? Yes, sometimes. On Alacritty and Rio? Nope, it's very snappy.

This was years ago, no idea how it is today. But I also have no reason to go back.

That too, but that’s unrelated. To me that was yet another reason to stop using node altogether, I wasn’t enjoying it anyway.
