I spend about half a second estimating. I think, eh that looks like about 30 lines so I'll go 30k. Then it's "oops I was off by 5 lines", so 5j (or jjjjj like you) and I'm there. Unfortunately if I land where I go on the first try it's bad because my fingers leave the home row for a fist pump. "Yesss!" The relative number bit actually drives me nuts. Mostly I'm fixing some code error "on line 465" of my code. I open up my spacevim and I'm always at line 0, so I have to gg then 465G and it's irritating. Probably need a better IDE.

> I'm always at line 0 :set number :set relativenumber With both set, you see the actual line number you're on (e.g. line 465) and all other lines are relative. Personally I end up copy/pasting in/out of vim enough that I turn off line numbers but... FWIW, there's a way to not have the "always on 0" problem. :)
