In Japan, there is a famous doujinshi called Spartan vim that recommends natural vim.（P19-P20）
The doujinshi states that interactions between plugins affect operating speed and keymaps.
Being able to use vim without plugins is respected by some Japanese vimmers.😊

I don’t use plugins. I used to use a lot but instead I have just switched to external tools that do things like grep with ripgrep and produce vim launch commands
I have a demo of this here:
tags: https://asciinema.org/a/PNOAZY6fbcX1jY73I8Wlpw7ok
but other than tags I have ripgrep for finding contents and filenames
Looks very fast.
I put too many settings in init.vim and it became slow.😂
I would like to try this once. 📝
I basically copied the ctrl-r mechanism in bash, instead of searching history, it pastes in a generated command based on then command I selected with fzf.
The commands form a trie:

So i type “ctrl-f”, which launches fzf on this file with an initial search of “^”. then type a sequence of characters so that I can execute these commands as muscle memory.
