Thanks for the script! (Bing Chat gives your gist when asking how to install latest neovim for debian) 😄
Looks like neovim does not release deb any more according to this change.
any reliable source for deb going forward? @strobelt

Thanks for the heads-up @vcfvct, I updated the gist to download NeoVim directly from the latest release available and extract it to /usr.
