The VIM ones are my favorite - I'm always blown away with the simple keyboard shortcuts that could have saved me hours had I known them 2 years ago.

TIL just typing "=" in Vim fixes all my indentation

Just subscribed to his newsletter so I can get these and not forget about this cool repo!

The absolute best Vim command of all times is "ciw", or its variants "ci(", "cip", ... You use this command when your cursor is in the middle of a word (or parenthetical expression or paragraph or ...) and you want to replace that word by a new one.

Maybe it's too well-known, but this command changed my life and I haven't found in the linked list of TILs.

I got that one from Drew Neil's book: Practical Vim

Sweet find.

If you want to change a single line without doing a visual selection, '==' does the trick.
