Honestly, same. I did naturally start to pick up things such as c(code actions) and some git related helpers. But <cnt><c/d/n/o/y/p> gets you 90% of the way there with / navigation.

Also just use the mouse! Lazyvim has great support for it.

<leader>SK is your friend as well.

Remember that `<leader>SK` does not show neovim built ins. Example ctrl-o which moves to older jumplist position is not show in it.

I'd also suggest kickstart.nvim over Lazyvim as its leaner with a primary file for configuration it is not lacking power.

You _can_ just use a mouse, but I would not recommend it for someone who wants to learn to become a power user.

I feel like the habit I’ve benefited the most from on my neovim journey has been reaching for :h before doing any web search. Good completion in the command-line helps a lot there.
