Trouble saving .vimrc settings for neovim on Linux?

Question

vim

Why, when I save the .vimrc settings file, then when I go to neovim, they are reset, I have to write source ~/.vimrc every time , what should I do to save the settings?

Answer 1

in nvim the config is stored elsewhere ~/.config/init.vim
you can create a link

ln -s ~/.vim ~/.config/nvim 
ln -s ~/.vimrc ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

then you can use vim and nvim together
