CTRL+[ also sends ESC control code. So you don't even need to map ESC on tap (I prefer to map layout switching to it).

- aldanor 4y agoIt's a matter of habit, I guess, but. - Ctrl-[ is a chord that you have to press with 4/5 fingers using both hands at once. - Whereas jk/fd etc are next to each other on the home row and pressed with 2/3 of the same hand sequentially. Given the number of times you would have to exit insert mode, the second option is arguably more ergonomic...
- definitely-not 4y agoThe one cool thing about CTRL+[ - it is universal in terminal and doesn't depend on configuration.
