As a current user of ranger could this be a full replacement?

Switched from ranger to yazi months ago. There's some UI choices that I miss but the configuration via toml and lua plugins is way better than rangers.

I would like to find a git modeline plugin. Its wild to me that they have a zoxide integrated and keybound by default but no git integration.

Yes. I switched to yazi from ranger. File previews is so much better. Image previews dont hog up ram or crash your manager. It has everything and more like opening encrypted archives, plugin support, themes. I use 2 plugins, one to compress files and the other to display present directory size.

It's not just the features but the app itself is magnificent. I have never seen such a goid looking tui app.

Same, ranger was painfully slow at times. For some reason it would take multiple seconds to start on a few machines I connected it to.
