What is the coolest, unknown(-ish) plugin that you're using that other people could benefit from?
vim-cool Not sure if there's an easier way to do it than having this plugin, but it disables search highlighting when you're done, and enables again when you search again. Makes me not have to use `:noh`
- set nohlsearch when pressing anything except n or N?
-
Call :noh command at InsertEnter autocmd
You may be interested in the vim-cool plugin, which uses InsertEnter and CursorMoved autocmds to automatically disable search highlighting after you're done with the search.

What is the best vim motion alternative for this kind of text selection ?
vim-visual-multi has similar motions: in my mapping I go: ctrl+arrow_down > tab to enter selection mode > e to end of word -> y Although the pasting needs to be done to a block. Pasting to new document is ok though

Simultaneous editing of _some_ instances of a word or sentence
I know people say it's not necessary, but, for me personally, vim-visual-multi has been a vital part of my plugins and I use it QUITE a lot; maybe it's because I'm bad at Vim, but I basically can't live without the plugin

List of questions after first week of transitioning to neovim
For 5. I think this is the usual multiple cursor plugin: https://github.com/mg979/vim-visual-multi It's a bit to learn and really powerful, but since it's a plugin and not a core feature it might not play nice with everything else.
