Paul, you’re killing me! I keep going back and forth on Vim. I love the idea, but it is a fairly steep learning curve. I managed to get the basics down, and even used Vim mode in Obsidian for a while, but ended up disabling it because it felt somewhat incomplete. Ideally, any editor I use would have a consistent Vim mode but I didn’t feel like Obsidian’s was there yet. Maybe it has gotten better? Also, are you using a theme with fixed-width fonts? Vim navigation seems to make more sense to me when fixed-width fonts are involved.

I’ll definitely check out the videos you’ve recommended. Thanks for that!
