I recommend keeping the account to make sure the comments are really gone. Deleted mine in the height of last year's outrage with the most popular open source app I could find and it took several attempts. Looked like they were deleted. Checked a week later and they were all back. Just logged in now and I still have a few comments. Think I'm going with glue and gasoline recipes this time.
Your story is similar to mine. I also use Colemak-DH. However, I sort of quit Qwerty cold turkey. I also used to touch type about 80 wpm on Qwerty, and because I didn't maintain it or practice while learning Colemak, I completely overwrote my muscle memory. Overall, the layout is more comfortable for me, but hard to justify especially if you rather not tamper with default keybindings.
I'm also a vim keybinding user, but in Emacs evil-mode mostly. Vim keybindings are definitely made for qwerty, and to me not rebinding the keys just seemed insane.
I ended up spending a weekend, reviewed all the keybindings I use, and ones I should probably use more, then wrote it all out [0].
I remapped a lot of keys back to their qwerty positions, but I also took the opportunity to make some changes that I thought would be more ergonomic. I also came up with me own mnemonic system for the re-mappings.
For example:
| function | before | after | new mnemonic | Commentary |
|-------------------+--------+-------+-------------------+--------------------------------------------|
| find file at pt | g f | g s | search file at pt | need to free up `g f' |
| find file.. w/ ln | g F | g S | search file.. etc | need to free up `g F' |
| end WORD | E | F | far WORD | foot/forward are other possible mnemonics |
| end WORD | g E | g F | far WORD rev | foot/forward are other possible mnemonics |
| end word | e | f | far word | |
| end word | g e | g f | far word rev | |
| find | f | s | search | right next to till :) |
| rev find | F | S | rev search | |
| visual mode | v | r | range | see note below |
| visual lines | V | R | range lines | |
| visual block | C-v | C-r | range block | |
| visual restore | g v | g r | range restore | |
| replace | r | v | revise | convert is another possible mnemonic |
| replace mode | R | V | revise mode | |
| goto mk | ` | j | jump | easier to reach and now mnemonic |
| goto mk ln | ' | J | jump to line | same key as j now, which makes sense to me |
Here is a minimal vim config [1] that I use if I find myself wanting to use (neo)vim. My evil-mode config [2] in Emacs. Remapping `less` keys [3].
I don't rebind my keys on Colemak for vim/evil. I got used to it pretty quickly. Beyond the basic hjkl movement commands I don't think anything is really meant for qwerty specifically. Remapping also breaks the mnemonics somewhat which I think is important. Emacs users got along just fine with Ctrl-n and p, so I see no specific reason remapping should be needed.
Really surprising to my that a Bosch / Miele can be had for less than $1000. In the US, it’s hard to find anything less than $3k in those brands. I have seen some places around here sell Beko, but only in white.
There’s more of a difference than just smart/not-smart, though. US tends to have those giant two-door fridges, we usually have single-door, stacked, fridge-freezer combinations.
