Change them to be the same! It's indeed a waste to have a difference for such fundamental keybinds
Same with Helix - there is a vim layout out there, no need to use a different set (unless, of course, you can use something better, but then you should also use it in vim)
Helix has been my daily driver for a few years now, and it’s extremely familiar if you’re coming from the LazyVim setup for NeoVim. I make a few mistakes here and there if I have to use tools with just basic VI binds, but you learn to juggle them both.
The config is very well documented and it would be simple to rebind things too.
Hope you give it a shot!
