Not sure if this is obscure or not: I have F12 bound to cycle through the low- to high-contrast versions of my color scheme so I can keep working when the sun hits my shitty laptop screen.
Not a Vim user, but no matter what software I'm using, I might think about its keybindings like the first week of getting familiar with it; at one point they become muscle memory and I stop thinking about them.

No way, you met json irl?

LMFAO! Perfect.

I typically don't know what I'm doing, so my favorite binding is :q!
towerful@programming.dev · 57 pts · 2y
I guess the obvious one is "holding spacebar for control key"
andrew@lemmy.stuart.fun · 53 pts · 2y
Look, my setup works for me. Can you please just add an option to reenable spacebar heating?

This is me. I will find a way to make it work, it will be janky, and any update is liable to throw the entire thing into disarray.

I was curious what the original said: https://thejenkinscomic.wordpress.com/2020/05/06/memory/

I've mapped jk to escape because it's rare and it's separate fingers in home row, so it's faster than e.g. jj.
milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee · 5 pts · 2y
I mapped kj instead. Can't remember why, but I like it that way.

Unfortunately both of those are used in common English or computer words. The only letter pairs not used are: bq, bx, cf, cj, dx, fq, fx, fz, hx, jb, jc, jf, jg, jq, jv, jx, jz, kq, kz, mx, px, qc, qd, qg, qh, qj, qk, ql, qm, qn, qp, qq, qr, qt, qv, qx, qy, qz, sx, tx, vb, vc, vf, vj, vm, vq, vw, vx, wq, wx, xj, zx.
Personally I have mappings based on
<CR>, and press it twice to get a real newline.milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee · 7 pts · 2y
I guess I just don't write "blackjack and hookers" often enough. Sigh, I'll never make a good Redditor.
Funny, I've never actually had "kj" interrupt me in vim. Maybe once. It's a funny way of realising I've never written certain words in vim!

I have
\yeetbound toggdG(backslash being my leader key)Edit: Detail about leader. I'd add the proper binding but markdown's being weird.
AVincentInSpace@pawb.social · 1 pts · 2y
so you use 5 keystrokes to get out of typing 4.
Vimlord@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
Technically yes. However I figured it'd be a funny one to have in my vimrc.
Also capital G requires a shift press, so not sure how many keystrokes that counts as.

Well, you see, I spilled coffee on my mechanical keyboard, permanently breaking the 2/@ key, so I mapped it to pause/break..

Ctrl+a, Ctrl+c, alt-tab, Ctrl+z, enter.

sping@lemmy.sdf.org · 1 pts · 2y
Yep. The primary advantage of keyboard control. It stops being something you engage your conscious brain for.

I map caps lock to esc with setxkbmap. Much more fun ergonomically.
Nefrace@programming.dev · 4 pts · 2y
I use caps for switching languages instead of alt+shift or super+space.
Very efficient thing when you need to use your native language and some code in one text message or code block.

I like the one of Isaac

alt+z for saving, I guess?
