avy VS hop.nvim

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:

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

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.

I make extensive use of avy for these kinds of situations.

Avy (avy-move-line) can do it very nicely and interactively for you, see this video.

It sounds like avy is what you're looking for?

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.

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):

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.

Personally I like to just hop using the hop plugin: https://github.com/phaazon/hop.nvim

I am using hop.nvim and hop.nvim works great most of the time except when I'm on an empty line. Suppose I'm editing this snippet and ^ represents my cursor

I waas thinking about something ala https://github.com/phaazon/hop.nvim to do fast selections, f.e.: -Entering visual mode or a specific mode -Search for f.e. 2 characters -Getting "hints" (like in vimium) for the matches -Being able to select and copy the hinted matches and being able to chose to either yank a line, a word, a url... etc

So I was previously using a bunch of plugins to be able to move between frequently used block delimiters "(){}...", things like Vim-matchup or Nvim-treesitter-textobjects. However, i had the sudden realization that what I was really doing was hopping between block delimiters most of the time, so I uninstalled all of them and created a keymap that works faster and requires only one plugin Hop.nvim, which I already use to obtain EasyMotion like movements. Here's the keymap, you can customize it to your liking to add common characters where you hop to (be careful as it is not a regular regex expression):

I prefer to use Hop with :HopWord. It just highlight every word in buffer. f({char}) ({char})
