dotfiles VS vim-easymotion

as an emacser, lua is not a big language, you can learn the basics in an afternoon and for configuring nvim with little experience with lua I managed to write just under three hundred lines of lua, its a great language even if I don't want to use it for much more than nvim

There is this script in my dotfiles. https://github.com/jeetelongname/dotfiles/blob/master/scripts/.local/bin/http that I wrote and then promptly forgot about (due to adopting an actual http server) one thing to add is that you can empty a shell command outputs into to variables by putting them in backticks

vim-easymotion together with space as mapleader (let mapleader = "\" in your .vimrc) can open up a new world for you.

Why not sneak or easymotion?

I'm also on team no remap. I don't use hjkl anymore and instead have a nav layer bound to where hjkl would be when I hold a thumb key down. I also use https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion Bound to norm s.

Incredible that nobody mentioned vim-easymotion - totally necessary for me.

But have you tried https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion (I recommend let mapleader = "\").

By vim motions, do you mean native motions or extended motions with plugins like vim easymotion and vim sneak? Those are the two I've been trying out recently.

Been around since ~2012 via vim-easymotion as well: https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion

I second the suggestion of using a plugin like easymotion. https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion

For switching: I suggest you try easymotion. Basically it lets you jump (or I'd like to call it teleport) to anywhere on screen even across visible windows. I cannot imagine my workflow without it.
