I went on a similar journey. Once I moved to lazy.nvim as the package manager, I noticed my config slowly converged towards Folke's LazyVim distro, so I intentionally completed that convergence. I think it's a great distro. I have since re-configured some of his choices (nvim-cmp, lualine, the winbar, and some telescope mappings) but, overall, I still benefit from one of the best Neovim plugin authors I know staying up to date with the Neovim ecosystem for me. Curious if that's where you'll head, too!
