The only ones that really trip me up are “x” and the surround ones. Not really too hard to overcome, in my opinion. Edit: I should also say that I’ve modified my Helix config quite a bit. You can find mine here: https://github.com/danieljaouen/dotfiles/blob/master/topics/...

Fair enough, but IMO one of the selling points of Helix is sensible defaults (kind of what Neovim was to Vim), so I'm quite torn on on that: modifying (Neo)Vim config all the time doesn't really make me happy anymore.

Maybe my biggest point is the difference in Vim integrations in IDEs vs using Helix outside of that, so not sure if I should switch but maybe I'm just being too lazy.

I personally main Emacs, so Helix really only scratches the itch of quick config file edits via terminal for me. However, I also don’t use VSCode, so I can see how that adds an additional wrinkle to things.
thanks for sharing your key remapping. most of it is very sane, i copied it.
