Is there an Obsidian plugin similar to AceJump for IntelliJ IDEs or avy for Emacs?
What I'm looking for is something like AceJump for IntelliJ IDEs or avy for Emacs. These tools let you navigate to some part of the visible text with just a few keystrokes. Here's the behavior I would like in Obsidian, copied from AceJump's page:

Vim-like “jump” cursor for Mac OS Window Management
For my emacs friends, here's a wonderful package that provides the same functionality: https://github.com/abo-abo/avy
And, if you're interested in some historical context for this "type characters and jump to point" functionality, the Canon Cat: https://youtu.be/o_TlE_U_X3c

Kill until next char preceding space | Uppercase | underscore
Personally I've learned to do things the "Emacs way" and got used to its killing behavior. For multi-line stuff I would mark the region and then use navigation commands to get the point where I want it. For more complex scenarios I use either C-s/C-r or just use avy to get the point where it needs to be. For single line stuff I think M-z works well. Maybe this package could be useful to you as well? Just some ideas, I think there are actually many options here (including going over to evil ;) and it depends on your preferences and needs.

Today Is International Mouse Arm Day. Do you use the mouse in Emacs?
I make extensive use of avy for these kinds of situations.

org-metadown in regular text!
Avy (avy-move-line) can do it very nicely and interactively for you, see this video.

[Spacemacs] Is bidirectional easy motion possible in spacemacs?
It sounds like avy is what you're looking for?
-
Navigate to positions within long words
Perhaps avy. I would use the commandavy-goto-char-2 then type N a and the corresponding jump key (if it appears). avy-goto-subword-1 is a bit more niche but might also work well.

Leap.nvim: Neovim’s Answer to the Mouse
I'm jumping around on the screen using -> https://github.com/abo-abo/avy#avy-goto-char
This UX does not break my flow (it doesn't require focus/conscious thought):
1. Press + while looking at the place I want to jump to
- Nested/conditional keybindings to navigate in text

How to combine evil operator keys + isearch?
I installed a package called avy which can do anything I have no issues whatsoever. If you're interested here is my very simple config. There are several options, I like the one with the timer.

Modeless Vim
You can also use Hydra for Emacs.[1] Once I discovered how to configure Hydra, I made it a habit to make one for every new major mode I need to use.

Can you explain the power of emacs please?
An Emacs specific example: I'm working on a few go projects at the moment and go requires recompilation after changes. Step one was finding auto-recompilers for my projects (I'm using both air and reflex in various projects). Step two was realizing that I spent a lot of time switching to the buffer where the output is printed, so I wrote a little hydra menu to make that easier. Then I found myself having to restart those processes each time I restarted Emacs, so I went digging and found detached to manage the processes. Then I got tired of having to hunt for where the detached output was displayed in my frame so dug into sidebars to manage the windows more effectively.

Is it possible to make god-mode turn off automatically after a command?
I think the goal of the hydra package is to provide such functionality.
-
Non-evil users: what modifiers do you use on emacs?
I would I also encourage anyone who does not want to use modal editing to look into repeat-mode, hydras, and key-chord.

Newbie question: What is a good strategy for personal keybindings to avoid conflicts, including with packages installed later on?
The C-c prefix is designed for you, the user, to use for your nefarious deeds. Some things that may help with both binding and knowing what key does what would be a menu such as hydras or transient menus (which apparently are part of Emacs now so that's new).
-
Too many keybindings
For the very same reason, I started to use hydras: https://github.com/abo-abo/hydra - see my config at https://github.com/novoid/dot-emacs/blob/master/config.org

How usable is Emacs with its default keybindings?
Hydra lets you define mini-modes with limited scope.

A good config with leader keys
general.el also works well with hydra.el. Here's my hydra for window operations - it activates when I press ,w:
