  Yes, it is. First, how would you know that LazyVim is the fast and easy one? Second, it's not fast and easy even with LazyVim, let's start with the basics like keymap: map({ "n", "x" }, "j", "v:count == 0 ? 'gj' : 'j'", { expr = true, silent = true }) map("n", "<C-h>", "<C-w>h", { desc = "Go to left window", remap = true }) To understand this (and to adjust to your liking) you kind of have to learn the language you're not going to use ('gj' or <C-w>h) instead of using something easily readable like ["go","window","left"], or instead of actually pressing C-w to insert <C-w> like many (mostly GUI) apps allow Then the time consuming part: it doesn't make it easy to resolve conlficts which inevitably arise when doing many rebinds. Also, it'd be very time consuming to learn and reference that unused binding language Then the help is rather verbose and not intuitive (see my parent comment) (don't remember if help uses default keybinds or actual ones Then it relies on a very barebones and not very popular language (though miles better than vimscript) Then there are a gazillion of other things which make the perception reflect the reality pretty well
