Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts
> I have swapped Caps Lock and Escape on my Linux personal laptop and I have grown used to it.
I'd also suggest "home row modifier keys" (or "home row mods").
The idea is to have the key behave the same when tapped, but differently if held. (e.g. https://github.com/evilC/TapHoldManager implements this for AHK)
With home row modifiers, Shift/Ctrl/Win/Alt are put underneath fdsa (and jkl;). -- This reduces the need to use pinky fingers for these keys, & the fingers get to remain on home row more.

Using Hotkey If, With EvilC TapHoldManager Library
The thing is, to make up for the small number of keys available, I want to use EvilC's TapHoldManager library to achieve this. I have spent the past few days increasing my knowledge of this library.

tapping, double tap and triple tap
Like the good u/G1ZM03K said, TapHoldManager is the way to go as is a battle tested method (5+ years and hundreds of users). It also plays nice with AutoHotInterception which is a handler for a keyboard kernel driver.

How do I make it so if a press a button quickly, one key is sent, but if I press it for a bit of time, it presses a different key.
Have a look at this, it's quite robust and surely will have what you need https://github.com/evilC/TapHoldManager

Joystick Gremlin and Multiple Keyboards
Since you mentioned VR, I suppose you could try TapHoldManager which will allow you to double/triple/long press (any # of taps really) your KB buttons. I didn't suggest it earlier since you I assumed you would be putting stickers on your macro KB.

Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts
AutoHotkey is what made me fall love programming after disliking it after getting my degree. After switching to a macbook, AutoHotkey is probably what I miss most from being on Windows. It really has it all.
My old suite had:
- Universal VIM movement w/ CapsLock
- App launch hotkeys
- App-specific hotkeys
- Easy text-expansion
Hasn't been updated in years, but here is the repo for those interested: https://github.com/denolfe/autohotkey
Or a nice boilerplate to start from: https://github.com/denolfe/AutoHotkeyBoilerplate
