Vim in Obsidian for beginners

These are some of my recommendations (most are taken from my [[Vim Language]] note sources):

And I’m copying the advice I gave in discord:

I definitely recommend disabling the arrow keys if you’re really serious about learning vim. That will force you a bit into thinking in vim.

noremap <Up> <NOP>
noremap <Down> <NOP>
noremap <Left> <NOP>
noremap <Right> <NOP>

And as I said start small! First just use vim to move faster (without the arrow keys). You can learn some more magic later.
