Shift-G / gg are “big” wins for me on a fairly regular basis.

That's a good example, but I suspect most editors/IDEs have their own equivalent shortcuts.

Apparently in Visual Studio it's SHIFT+CTRL+HOME.

Not all keyboards have a home key and the vast majority have a shift/g key, but yes, i agree.

One of the most useful Vim motions for me has been repeating j / k for n times, e.g using 12j to jump down 12 lines.

Combined with relative line numbers (to show how many lines to jump up / down) this has been a really big win for me to navigate around text.

you don't use `)` or any other object motion? You should (consider)! `:help object-motions`
