> What? No [Neo]Vim user has ever ported Emacs keybinding to Insert Mode? O_o
I'm curious how fluid that is. My experience with Emacs keybindings has been, well, variable to say the least. Maybe the vim-alike folks can make better experiences. Readline's emacs bindings are a bit lacking but still fairly good for day-to-day usage.
I am truly, to borrow a phrase from another commenter on this post, a "longtime Emacs dabbler". But I use Evil mode everywhere and sometimes use other Emacs bindings in Insert mode where they don't directly conflict with some other Evil binding. It feels more or less harmonious to me, but I started with Evil and I'm not particularly attached to any default Emacs bindings.
