Do you modify your keyboard layout at all? I’ve tried Vim several times and many of the motions just feel awkward as hell for my fingers, but I’m on a standard wasd keyboard.

I have a qwerty keyboard also and all I have done to change my layout is remap caps lock to escape. Which is definitely vim relevant. I am a vim guy.

I don't. I like to keep it as close as possible to the defaults so that it just works everywhere. I don't want to have to import my vimrc whenever I SSH somewhere :-).

I am on a standard qwerty keyboard, nothing fancy here either!

And I almost don't use vim plugins: I enable syntax highlighting, relative line numbers and I add CtrlP as a plugin. That's all. Whenever I need more than that, I start an IDE (configured with the vim bindings of course :-)).
