I really want to switch from vim (well, neovim) to VSCode because I feel like the IDE features are just better and require less configuration and hassle. However, I want the whole app to respond to vim-like key bindings. I don't want to have to Cmd+anything, and certainly not Cmd+Opt+Shift anything. I wish the whole damn thing was modal.

yeah, I agree with you. it would be a lot better if the whole vscode could respond to vim-like key bindings, but it's good enough for me right now. I'm really focused on creating and publishing projects and vscode has helping me with that goal.

totally fair. i'm adaptable in most things but i have a lot of trouble hitting the right keys when i have to hit multiple at once, unless it's Ctrl+, for some reason.

Note that Oni2 should be able to do this kind of thing when finished
