I decided I was ready to move on from distributions like LunarVim and based my config on kickstart.nvim. I’ve fixed it up a lot with additional stuff for me and I’m mostly pretty happy with it. The default keymappings aren’t my favorite though. No shade on the kickstart team, they just don’t fit the way I think.

I’m trying to decide what a good organization strategy might be. What keymappings strategies are out there to get some organization or intuitive groupings?

    Just use the NeoVim defaults and then if something is bothering you or missing, rebind it. Most of the defaults have been totally legit for decades, and everyone speaks in terms of them. At the end of the day, your job is to build muscle memory one way or another

    But yeah rebind caps to esc at the OS level

      I’ve bound it to esc when tapped and ctrl when held, no more bending my pinky or thumb in half in an attempt to press ctrl.

    I’ve kept everything at default as well. The two main ones I added are Ctrl+s to save, and qq to quickly close a buffer.

      Is qq not mapped to start record a macro? I find that quite useful.
