I changed Emacs for Sublime and now VScode - my main reason to change IIRC was that my fingers/wrist hurt from using chords so much :(

  How does Sublime or VSCode help with that? Emacs has evil mode which enables a vi style interface.

    For once, they help because you don't feel like playing with the editor so much... Emacs was a timesink. Like, where now I use https://insomnia.rest/ https://insomnia.rest/ to interact with APIs, when I used emacs that could/would be solved with elisp files filled with elisp functions to run those calls interactively...

  You should have simply switched to sticky keys, so you don't have to press keys simultaneously: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_keys https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_keys Also, you can change the keybindings.

    I tried a few times, but could not go from "pressing at the same time" to "presssing in a sequence". I just "chorded"...
