Set up your own shortcuts for the software that matters to you. Terminal emulator and text editor/IDE will pay for the effort spent very quickly.

That "pay" will always disappears, but the keyboard placement and vim commands never disappear.

I think we're having a disconnect here. You can keep your custom settings and take them with you wherever you go. This actually also applies to your operating system (especially Linux) but I personally do not mess with them much unless it's a tiling window manager - which is another class of software that benefits greatly from setting up custom shortcuts.

Why would it disappear? I have used the same key bindings (from Sublime) on Jetbrains IDEs for years.
