2 stripe blue belt here! I used to use Vim for everything other than Java development and have now adopted Emacs in the same way.

MacOS actually does better in this area of keyboardless software: you have https://www.homerow.app/ and https://shortcat.app/. Not sure about linux, but I would imagine that the home of OS hackers would have something similar. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

If you're on Mac try shortcat - it's solved most mouse issues for me. I use a mouse now <5% of tasks and keyboard shortcuts for the rest. Https://shortcat.app/. Source: 11 months ago

As you may or may not know, there's an app called Shortcat for Mac, which is amazingly cool: it allows you to navigate the "whole" UI using the keyboard (something like Vimium in the browser, but for all the "normal" windows). Source: 12 months ago
