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.

Question about folke's which-key and <CR> (`RETURN`)
I think I'm looking in the wrong place unfortunately, seems like the plugin I want to use (vim-visual-multi) may have issues with which-key 🙁

Are there plugins for Neovim that don't exist, that should exist, in your opinion?
If you're into hidden gems: * This fixes repeat behaviour for all visual modes, like proper . in visual block. * This this provides a proper paste-over operator, working with all register types (text?,line,block).

Easy way to yank and replace?
The best solution I've found to this is a plug-in called Replace with register, which maps to gr (mnemonic "go replace"). This lets you just do diw, move, griw.

Changing the copy buffer of yank and delete word
If you don't mind using plugins, take a look at vim-replace-with-register, which is designed to solve exactly this problem. It gives you a command, mapped to gr by default, which replaces the following text object with the contents of a register. So you can delete a word (daw), then move to a different word and replace it with the contents of the default register (graw).
