A Guide to vim.pack (Neovim built-in plugin manager)

The upcoming Neovim 0.12 release will have a built-in plugin manager. It is implemented in Lua and is available as a built-in vim.pack module (hence the name).
i was expecting more a human review than an AI context dump, but whatever. i’m conflicted. i’ve been through my share of vim plugin manager migrations, including the recent big change to Lazy. i’m tired boss, and i’m worried about bloat. i hope this feature works out, but i’m gonna let it bake for a while.
What makes you think this is a generated article?
i’m tired boss, and i’m worried about bloat.
Yes. I now just git clone into the pack directory.
None of the plugin managers has been as reliable, for me.
This is a helpful guide!
