Yes, you're spot on. I was using a mildly stiff, mechanical split keyboard while having relatively weak fingers. Stopped using it and switch to a low profile chiclet keyboard where I was using way less strength, and could type more loosely. It also made it way easier to type on glass, as an unintended side effect. Switching to a trackpad also helped in interesting ways, as I got rid of many keyboard shortcuts for page navigation, app switching etc. and moved to gestures instead. To note, I still use vim a lot. Just not as my main editor. Also the changes I made are probably very personal and wouldn't have the same effect on other people with different tendencies.
