I feel exactly the same way. I like the idea in theory, but in practice my code files have too many repeating common characters for a two-letter jump to be useful. The only thing that this extension offers that vim's `/` doesn't is the ability to use it as a movement. But in practice I think that it is too finickey. I just enter visual mode, search for my destination, and then apply the operation.
So for the text

I know that with sneak I could type `gUzx ` to upper case everthing up until 'jumps'. But `v/x <ENTER>U` works just fine, and to my neanderthal brain is way less mental overhead. Not to mention I get to see what I am doing instead of having to just imagine it.
- skribanto 4y ago/ can be used as a movement though?
