Sneak vs Hop and Why?

  The missing motion for Vim :athletic_shoe:

Basically over the past view weeks, I've been trying out different plugins to see what works best for me and what'll help make Neovim even more capable of completing with other mouse oriented editors. I feel that plugins such as Sneak and Hop(and also EasyMotion, but that's not apart of my question). Which is better in your opinion? Also make sure to explain your decision.

  Incremental fuzzy search motion plugin for Neovim

Having tried a few, i actually prefer pounce: https://github.com/rlane/pounce.nvim

• leap.nvim

  Neovim's answer to the mouse 🦘

I'll give both a try, looking at the README and what people say, I hear Leap is a little easier to use.

• quick-scope

  28 1,376 4.6 Vim Script

  Lightning fast left-right movement in Vim

If you're only looking to do horizontal movement, as you say in your post, I would recommend just using quick-scope. All it does is highlight unique characters in words on the current line when you press t/T/f/F. If no character in a word is unique it also highlights those that are avaliable in two jumps, i.e. using ;/, after the first jump. Quick-scope is great because you don't have to learn any new workflow, you can just use the built-in one more efficiently.
