Has anyone ever tried to use vim on a non qwerty layout? I’ve always been interested in colemak but having to possibly re-bind every single key for vim is daunting.

I’ve been using vi/vim with Dvorak for over 30 years. Why would you have to re-bind keys?
For me, it’s about knowing the mnemonic for the various vim commands and what the keys do, not where they are placed on the Qwerty layout. I’ve been touch-typing Dvorak for over 20 years and think about what I am trying to do in vim/vi (or evil-mode) rather than where on the keyboard I need to hit a key.
