How do you "copy all"?
I agree that ggVG is fine but not with the custom leader to copy to clipboard part. If you're gonna have to remember something might as well use a text object instead, that way you get the full range of actions and not just the hardcoded mapping. I use kana/vim-textobj-entire that provides e for entire buffer, so copying would be yie and life is smooth. There's a bunch of text object plugins, just get one or write it yourself would be my advice.
- Installing argtextobj.vim
-
Need some help with keybindings.
I like the entire document text object: https://github.com/kana/vim-textobj-entire
- What extra and useful textobj does vim have?
-
Select all and move cursor back
You should make your life easier and get the entire text object plugin. This is the easiest way to act one the entire buffer with no surprises, although it still does change the cusror position sometimes, but I still recommend it.
-
What are your must-have vim/nvim extensions?
kana/vim-textobj-entire - Make entire buffer available as a text object
-
What are your favorite "compound" motions?
I now use entire text object for this with vie, which is more mentally coherent, for me, than ggVG.

FAVOURITE PLUGINS
kana/vim-textobj-entire adds e as text object for entire buffer

Had my 7 year old doing spelling words on VIM. Since she has not done much text editing it was effortless to get her thinking in "modes."
die (delete in entire) with the plugin vim-textobj-entire
-
How can I return to the last cursor position after using formatprg and gggqG?
I would suggest adding the text object "entire", either by making your own omap, or using a plugin like vim-textobj-entire.

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
