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?
You can use the plugin better-escape.vim'.

What are your favourite mappings? Esc? Ctrl+w? Others?

Mapping to avoid stretching hand to reach underscore
Ok so I apologize if this isnβt 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?

:syntax off (2016)
I could never turn it off completely but I do sometimes use the Acme theme during the day (it's too bright in the evening), which highlights just comments, strings, and errors.

You can use a snippet LSP to work around Helix not having a built-in LSP manager. They're listed in https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/395

Memray β A Memory Profiler for Python
I'm probably not the average python programmer.
But I normally just create two terminals (I have a tiling window manager) and in one I open a python file under /tmp/ write my code and execute it in the other terminal.
I would probably use a REPL if it was integrated in my favorite editor ( https://helix-editor.com ).

Neovide β a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim
Wow, that's been there a while: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/commit/35c974c9c49f912...
Wonder how I missed that. I'm getting a re-education in helix today -- thank you! I'll go through `hx --tutor` again before I insert any more feet in my mouth.

Zed is now open source
Interesting to see how they are gonna approach integrating plugins/extensions system, because this is likely gonna be one of the major factors affecting adoption and ecosystem growth.
Helix devs, for instance, lean towards a Scheme-like implementation. [1]
