You press the shortcut for it, type the character you want to jump to, it highlights every instance of that character and shows you a unique shortcut key for each one, you then press that key to jump to your desired character.

I agree though, that gif is far too fast.

I agree with both of you that the playback is too fast. I tried to get it slower a number of times, but the compression phase seems to take out some of the pauses...

I'll take another look to see if there's anything that I can do with the gif creation process I have.

If anyone has suggestions for gif recorders that give you control at this level, I'd love to know about it.

I switched methods and used GIFBrewery and was able to generate a better gif (I think). I'd be interested to hear if this one is easier to understand. Thanks!

I used GIFBrewery a couple times before and it works great [1] [2] [3].

It is easier to understand now, but I think you should stay on the last part a bit longer before looping it to make it clear that the animation finished.

I assumed it to work like that. I use Lokaltog's EasyMotion for Vim [1]. He also features a GIF that explains it which, on the other hand, is almost too slow.
