One thing that helped me was to avoid chords with one hand.
In the past, I’d twist my left thumb for a single handed ctrl-c or the right fingers for shift-; (to type a colon in vim). Similar for ctrl-a and ctrl-b.
I switched to a single F12 key for tmux, semicolon for vim, and either use specialized macro keys for cut/paste or got in the habit of using two hands for them.
It made an enormous difference for me.
This. Chording is the enemy. Use the right control key for the common ctrl-c ctrl-v ctrl-a etc. that are all in the left hand.
This also relates to my most controversial opinion: The caps lock key is good, actually.
I've never seen anyone else do this, but I press left Ctrl with the fleshy pad under my pinky. So it's just a small flick of the wrist instead of a large rotation I'd need to use the finger.
