Is there a way to record and view all commands used on the file?
there's also telescope-undo and vim-mundo
-
Recommended minimal set of plugins for a great experience
I don't always need it, but when I do I find vim-mundo incredibly helpful. Understanding the vim undotree is hard without a visualization and mundo's ability to search my undo chunks makes it easy to revive some previous change that wasn't committed to version control.

Undo tree?
Still using mundo here (https://github.com/simnalamburt/vim-mundo)
-
How to navigate back and forth through last edits?
You mean undo/redo? that's u and . To view undos visually you can use a plugin like [vim-mundo](https://github.com/simnalamburt/vim-mundo

Take More Screenshots
I'm glad you found something that works for you, and I don't mean to dissuade you even if I could, but to me that feels like an antipattern if you only use it for typed text.
Consider that with a text editor like Vim, for example, you can "time travel" [0] through your file's edits, or even have undo branches/trees [1][2] available per file. That saves you the trouble of having to transcribe text from screenshots, and also barely uses any storage space.
Plain text is also highly more portable and more likely to be recoverable in case of drive failure or file corruption.
Additionally, or alternatively, you could try any sort of manual versioning system or background automatic backup solution that keeps versions of files as you work on them.

Time traveling with Vim
It's not just minutes either, you can do seconds with s, hours with h, days with d and get this - "writes" with w. You can also just simply go back to an arbitrary n number of buffer states before; but just like writes, that's hard to keep track of mentally and instead you should probably use a proper plugin for that.

What do you prefer for NOTE TAKING or similar purposes?
I used to use Typora before I got into Neovim and realised that it wasn't free software either. Now I'm quite satisfied with my current setup, which uses: - aerial.nvim for header outline and navigation - run-code.nvim for running code blocks - vim-mundo for persistent undo history traversal (like Mac's time machine) - Prettier for auto-formatting Markdown as well as code blocks to their respective languages

Piece of mind for a reddit noob.
Using a plugin like undotree (or Gundo, or Mundo) to visualize the edit history is by far the most practical solution to OP's problem, and I'm shocked you're the only person to suggest it.
-
Why is it so hard to see code from 5 minutes ago?
There's a fork called mundo which has an inline diff mode that I'm a big fan of — https://github.com/simnalamburt/vim-mundo

Gitless a simple VCS built on top of Git
What's helped me much more lately is undotree for vim [1]. It basically logs every single time a file is saved. Its much more useful because commits have to be made by humans and they may not do it often (and usually there is an incentive for "clean or working commits"). There have been many times where I went back to copy something from the undotree.

Some plugin for tracking and visualizing of changes across multiple buffers? Or switches between buffers?
Hi, I love Vim, and use it for big projects too, with many files. Often I switch between many files, make changes, undo, and get lost in them, trying to find a file that I edited and undoed a few minutes ago. I think, maybe exists some plugin, that will visualize my history of changes, like UndoTree, but across multiple buffers? And/or list of my teleportations between buffers? I can imagine this, also like a tree...
-
Opening undotree does not automatically change focus to the buffer
The plug-in could be found here

Superpowers but...
Install undo tree and your life turns into a choose your own adventure story.

Tell HN: Vim users, `:x` is like `:wq` but writes only when changes are made
> I really hate autosave. I like using saving like a checkpoint where i have the ultimate undo button by ditching the unsaved changes.
Although I don't use autosave, I don't think it matters that much with vim because you can always use undotree[0]

Any good reason not to remap "u" to "g-" and "<c-r>" to "g+"?
I finally got around to clear up the vague notions I had about the `g+` and `g-` commands which I knew helped me jump to across branches but was never exactly sure how. With the help of undotree module, it is now crystal clear what the difference was between `u` and `g-` and between `` and `g+` are.
