how do you tolerate the 0 and $ to jump to the ends? it’s so painfully inconvenient and made me switch to helix where it’s g->h and g->l. do you not use the default keymap?
Most nvim users I know have their setup very much customized. That takes time, effort and is a pita. But afterwards you have a tool that just works like you want it to work, and is super fast (at least compared to VSCode).
They’re both code/text editors, or what would you call VSCode instead? An IDE? you can make an IDE out of nvim if you want.
Yes, there is a vim mode in VSCode, but in some cases it can be very slow (like editing a few thousand columns at once), and is not as tightly integrated.

you can change that if it bothers you
yeah ik, I’m just curious about how people deal with it

I don’t understand why you compare it to vs code, it’s not a text editor and besides, it has vim too?

Shift-A and Shift-I to append at the end or insert at the start.
Once you know the system, it’s much easier to do everything without having to take your hands off the keyboard to use a mouse.
For me, it’s that it is shorter to type 0. Also I cannot somehow recall 2 letter commands
Muscle memory mostly. I miss vim keybinding when I have to type in anything else, including Lemmy.
You could also do
IorAfollowed byescfor the same effect.Most often though I use
/or?to just go specifically where I want.
