Okay, perhaps I should have been clearer, that’s on me.
I meant qwerty and related layouts.
Things like Dvorak and Colemak, the movement keys are spread across the keyboard and if you want to navigate that way you’ll pretty much have to remap them, and probably remap the keys you’ve swapped. For me, it’s just easier to use the arrows than go through that.
I mean, yeah, of course. Vims default keys are made for the “regular” layouts. But you can Mal everything yourself if needed. I’m sure there are pre made mappings for other layouts too.
Using the arrows may not be the most efficient, but I’m not spending enough time in vim to make that be an issue… Though I’ve seriously considered trying to swap to it from VSCode
I do pretty much all editing in vim. One you “force” yourself to use hjkl, there was no going back to arrow keys. Nowadays I Mal arrow keys to move lines up and down and add or remove indentation.
