How can a keymap only execute if the last key in the key sequence is pressed?
I just tested a probably hacky and unintentional way around this, but better-escape lets you remap sequences in i-mode to do kinda whatever. In the 'keys' key of the config table, it defaults to '' but I changed it to ':wi' and it seems to work. Don't want to be the person that tells you to rely on this for some big project without serious testing though.

Vim and Colemak-dh: suggestions on remapping "escape Insert mode"?
I could use better-escape.nvim so that there's less probability of clashing. Not sure how practical so that it's 100% no clashing. I never have any clashes with jk.

How to remap double Esc entered quickly to Normal Mode + Write? (Linux)
Maybe try the better escape plugin and set the escape key in that plugin to ":w!".

mapping "jk" to Esc is not working using inoremap in replace mode
I like using better-escape.nvim as it removes the delay that you get with using a mapping. You can certainly use a mapping for it, but it's much more comfortable with this plugin.

Remap esc to something a little bit more comfortable?
I also use "jk", like a tons of people I think, additionally I installed this little plugin that make the experience veeeery smooth: better-escape

Learn Vim (2021)
This issue is only cosmetic as the other commenter explained. vim won't insert the character until you indicate you're not invoking the keymap (either by waiting or by typing other characters).
If you want a plugin that makes it so that the j appears immediately regardless of whether you're trying to invoke the keymap or not, you can use something like https://github.com/nvim-zh/better-escape.vim

Big game changers you wish you knew about earlier
better-escape is what you need then. One tiny plugin, one line of config in your vimrc/init file, and the delay is gone.

Journey to the Ultimate `imap jk <Esc>`
Then I came across better-escape.vim, a very recent plugin that does exactly what I want. With core implementation of less than 100 lines of vimscript, it is much more reasonable. People who have better things to do would probably stop here and be content with this perfectly good plugin, but not me. Although the plugin gets the job done, it essentially accomplishes a one-line functionality that is imap jk . For such a simple functionality like this, we really shouldn't be relying on plugins. I want something ultra-simple, something ultra-compact, something that can be put directly into your .vimrc.

A blatant plagarism of my plugin from the author of better-escape.nvim
Hi, fellow reditters, I am the author of better-escape.vim, which is created about 9 months ago. In fact, I have announced it in my eariler post.

I want to create a custom binding to get me into Normal mode that doesn't involve Ctrl or Esc. DistroTube on YouTube said he remapped hitting "i" twice to do this. Do you guys have any other suggestions?

Mapping to avoid stretching hand to reach underscore
Ok so I apologize if this isn’t super helpful, but I remember reading this about how to write a function to map jk to escape without having that annoying lag you talk about. You could maybe use this same approach but alter it a bit to make two spaces turn into an underscore but without lag. The author of that post also made a plugin with that idea, so maybe it could help you?
