Vim Keybindings Preferences

You sound like someone who uses vim instead of emacs. So many keys for each operation!

same exactly for me, i use sometime the arrows or the other keys or c-s etc.... i don't mind the jk vim keys as well when i am in vim, either way it's all about your brain being good enough to context swift in .... context

we old vi users don't use key combinations, that's an emacs thing :)

As a vi/vim addict, I'm more concerned about the future of the esc key...

As a Dvorak typist and Emacs user (repented from using Vim in the past), when I need to use a vi-like I just use the standard key bindings. Nothing good comes from rebinding keys in my opinion. But the way my brain works is by remembering that scroll down in Vim is Control + D and my fingers remember where Control and D are located on the keyboard.

Nah the keybindings don't work once you learn the vim ones

I use vim for quick edits only, when I'm on a shell doing some config or authoring a commit etc. Esc felt weird for a day or so then my hand just adopted to the touch esc key, not that bad. Might be a lot harder for a hardcore user though.

Or maybe an hjkl vim remapping is in order :)

thx, why didn't you stick to emacs keybindings?

I'm actually more of an Emacs with Vim keybindings person :P
