"vi," to select text between comma
There's a number of plugins for an "argument" text object (mine is sideways), but if you're just looking for a simple "change between commas", here's a great SO answer that explains how to create a mapping like that for yourself in two lines: https://stackoverflow.com/a/44109750/853920

sideways.vim: move arguments left and right (I know this is nowadays done with tree sitter, but there isn't a ts grammar for everything so far)

Swapping words
Yeah, I use sideways.vim and vim-exchange. (Not entirely sure which solves what OP is asking about.)
- what is your startup time?
-
Swap any 2 comma separated selected WORDS
I use vim-sideways for this. If vim-swap doesn't work out, give it a shot!

How to insert text before end of a quote/brackets?
For the second case Sideways has SidewaysArgumentAppendLast. I mapped it to A (shouldn't conflict with other mappings).
-
How can I do delete in commas, change inside periods? Basically treating periods and commas like quotation, etc.
For argument lists, check out sideways.vim which is smart enough to shift arguments around instead of only selecting them.

How can i swap words ?
But there's also another "classic" plugin just for this use case: https://github.com/AndrewRadev/sideways.vim I've never used it though, so can't comment on its use, but it looks pretty good.
-
anyone know an elegant way to swap the orders of two parameters in a function call? foo(bar, baz) becomes foo(baz, bar)
Also not a native solution, but I've been using sideways.vim for a while. I have space as my leader and use leader-L and leader-R.

Vim newbie here, could you share your intuitive mappings?
Remapping $ and ^ is just weird, those have already very nice mnemonics coming from regular expressions. And s for substitute, wait until you find out about things like https://github.com/svermeulen/vim-subversive

What is one key map you use that you don't understand how other Vim users live without?
 is a plugin that basically exposes a functionality where you can replace a text object with something in a register.
