The VHS era, which spanned roughly from the late 1970s to the early 2000s, was a time when people could rent movies, record TV shows, and watch home videos at home using bulky magnetic tape cassettes.

This experience was defined by the ritual of trips to video rental stores like Blockbuster, the anticipation of recording favorite programs, and the physical nature of tapes that had to be rewound and could degrade over time.

This retro colorscheme for Neovim, is inspired by the aesthetics of this era.
