If you're not a Vim person yet and not super invested in learning Vim keybinds specifically, may I recommend Helix?
Helix has much better default keybinds, it has a lot of stuff built into it which would require extensions in Vim, and it has a much smoother learning curve (partially due to better keybinds, and partially due to the fact that it will show you which options exist when you eg. press `g`).
As an example: Moving to the start or end of a line is just `gh` and `gl`, which makes a lot more sense than Vim's keybinds. It's still going to take a while to get used to modal editing, but if you don't care about learning vim specifically, then I think that it's an improvement in every single regard.
My personal favorite feature is the multi-cursor editing, especially when coupled with the `s` key.
