I've liked Emacs, but the left-handedness of the key-chords tore me up all the way to the shoulder after any substantial amount of use.

Spacemacs was my answer.

doomemacs is similar and tends to be lighter and works well native jit compiling all the add ons.
Did you swap caps lock and ctrl?
No, I never did that with stock Emacs.

The 'space' in Spacemacs is how all of the menu options trigger, and I find it a pleasant approach.
