      • Using “cmd+f” to search terminal buffers instead of /
      • Using :wqa! and then reopening the editor instead of just using :w
      • Deleting an entire line by hitting x repeatedly
      • Adding to the end of a like by pressing i and then the right arrow key until they’re at the end of a line

      To be fair, I use arrow keys and I’ve been using vim for years. I happen to use Dvorak, so hjkl is… inconvenient (jk are where cv are on qwerty, h is where j is, and l is where p is). I could remap, but I’m used to other shortcuts.

      I almost never use hl, but I use jk periodically. I just happen to use other movements more.
