During startup redrawing is often postponed until all the settings have
been done and the size of the window is known. Then a redraw is done
once Vim is ready for work. This redraw may very well overwrite the
echo'ed message, or give you a prompt before it redraws.
It is hard to do otherwise. If you really want to have the message show
up after all initializations are done, you could use a VimEnter
autocommand:
au VimEnter * echomsg "Hello World"
Or use a timer:
call timer_start(50, {_ -> execute('"Hello World"')})
I haven't tried these commands, might need some tweaks.
