Your favourite Neovim plugins?
https://github.com/azabiong/vim-highlighter - highlight occurrences of words, can select multiple different words at same time. Independent from lsp word highlight, or search highlight - so these highlights wont interfere with vim-highlihger . Makes it easy to spot all places where some function or variable was used. One click to un-highlight all, or specyfic word. And it takes just hotkeys: - f + Enter - add cursor word occurrences highlight

Highlight text in Vim
If you just need to highlight a word under cursor with some color, then try https://github.com/azabiong/vim-highlighter. I often need to match identifiers in code that I browse to quickly identify what is used where. It's a very helpful plugin for this use case.

How can a keymap only execute if the last key in the key sequence is pressed?
I just tested a probably hacky and unintentional way around this, but better-escape lets you remap sequences in i-mode to do kinda whatever. In the 'keys' key of the config table, it defaults to '' but I changed it to ':wi' and it seems to work. Don't want to be the person that tells you to rely on this for some big project without serious testing though.

Vim and Colemak-dh: suggestions on remapping "escape Insert mode"?
I could use better-escape.nvim so that there's less probability of clashing. Not sure how practical so that it's 100% no clashing. I never have any clashes with jk.
- My favorite way to leave insert mode

mapping "jk" to Esc is not working using inoremap in replace mode
I like using better-escape.nvim as it removes the delay that you get with using a mapping. You can certainly use a mapping for it, but it's much more comfortable with this plugin.
