Evil keybinding for emacs from scratch
If it's the latter and you're looking for a way to set up vim/evil like keybindings yourself (separate links for each), Modalka, RYO-modal, and Meow (and probably a few dozen others 'cause emacs) allow you to do that.

"I'll just install EVIL"
Yes, I've briefly used modalka, which is very close to ryo-modal. I also used god-mode for a long time. There's a simple explanation for why I don't use existing packages.

Moving from evil to mostly-emacs keybindings
There are other modal systems for emacs. You even can construct your own with https://github.com/mrkkrp/modalka and https://github.com/Kungsgeten/ryo-modal. I have done that, these packages were extremely easy to use. I had a lot of fun designing the modal regime of my dreams. There are https://github.com/LouisKottmann/emacs-baboon, https://github.com/xahlee/xah-fly-keys (and its various forks) and https://github.com/clemera/objed.

Improving Emacs Isearch Usability with Transient
Another option to trigger functions are vim-inspired leader key sequences such as god mode [1] and the evil leader implementations in spacemacs and doomemacs, for example [2].

Devil Mode: A twisted key sequence translator for modifier-free Emacs experience
Reminds me of god-mode: https://github.com/emacsorphanage/god-mode. Although I use Evil, it still comes in handy on occasion when I need to type something without an Evil keybind. Alas, it’s been abandoned, though it still seems to work for me on the rare occasions I need it.

Non-evil users: what modifiers do you use on emacs?
It seems strange to me to compare Evil, a modal editor, with the use of modifier keys. Maybe that is because I'm a big fan of god-mode though. For god-mode I do use a slightly modified mod-alist, which might be useful.

The extensible vi layer for Emacs
There's active development of god-mode still though[0].
Mentioned elsewhere here, I've found meow[1] to be really interesting/good. And it leverages some of what makes god-mode nice (from their list of key features: "Minimizes modifier usage (e.g. `SPC x f` for `C-x C-f`) inspired by god-mode")
