  Vim motions on speed!

  

j and k are very inefficient methods of moving, and only the tip of the iceberg in vim movement commands. A lot of them requiring counting though, and that's annoying so I use https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion instead; there's even a section in the readme about replacing repetitive hjkl motions.

  deprecated in favor of leap.nvim

I'm using a QMK home-row mod keyboard and I used to have this issue as well. But turned out it helped me to be a better vim user since now I use better navigation methods. For one, J and K are mapped to 5J and 5K (as always). Then I used a plugin called ggandor/lightspeed.nvim to move to different locations. And I use rhysd/clever-f.vim for better horizontal movements.
